- Ingredients:
- 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
- Lemon wedges (for serving)
Directions:
- In a large mixing bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, lemon zest, oregano, salt, and black pepper. Whisk until well blended.
- Add the chicken pieces to the marinade, ensuring they are evenly coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours for maximum flavor.
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Spread the marinated chicken bites evenly on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
- Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes. Garnish with chopped parsley and serve with lemon wedges.
