A flavorful and juicy Galena Chicken recipe, marinated with a savory spice blend and grilled to perfection. A perfect dish for gatherings or weeknight dinners.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, soy sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper to create the marinade.
Place the chicken breasts in a shallow dish or resealable plastic bag. Pour the marinade over the chicken, ensuring it is fully coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight for best flavor.
Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Remove the chicken from the marinade and let any excess drip off.
Grill the chicken breasts for 6-8 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). Use a meat thermometer to check for doneness.
Remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving. Serve warm with your favorite sides like roasted vegetables, rice, or salad.
Notes
For added flavor, baste the chicken with the reserved marinade while grilling. This recipe also works well with chicken thighs or drumsticks.
