Lemon Garlic Chicken

juice of 1 lemon, approximately 3 T.
3 T. olive oil
1 t. minced garlic, about 2 medium cloves
1 t. salt
1/4 t. pepper
1/2 t. dried oregano
1 lb. chicken breasts (you can cut really thick chicken breasts down to thin them out and make the pieces a little smaller so they absorb the marinade better)

Combine all marinade ingredients. Place chicken in a ziploc bag and pour marinade over chicken. Seal bag and place in fridge overnight. Grill (or cook in frying pan). Serve with sides of your choice or cut into bite sized pieces and add to desired recipe (I'll be sharing a few with you soon).

Note: If you cut your chicken into smaller, bite-sized pieces and then marinate it, you can get away with only letting it marinate for 5 or 6 hours instead of overnight.
