Lemon Rosemary Chicken

This recipe can be done on a grill or in the oven. It is very tasty.

Lemon Rosemary Chicken

1/4 cup olive oil
Zest of one lemon
The juice of one lemon
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder or onion salt
1 teaspoon rosemary leaves, crushed
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1 pound, boneless, skinless chicken breasts halved

Mix all oil, zest, juice, and seasonings together in a bowl. Place chicken in a large resealable plastic bag or a glass dish. Add the marinade and coat well. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes (up to 2 hours but not longer or the chicken will break down). Remove chicken from the marinade and discard any remaining marinade. Season chicken with salt and pepper. Grill the chicken over medium high heat for 6-8 minutes per side or until chicken is cooked through, turning frequently.

If baking in the oven, preheat oven to 425 and bake for 30 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through.
