Recipe View 5 mins Rest and Garnish: Remove the chicken from the broiler or grill and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in more tender and flavorful chicken. Garnish with fresh parsley or chives, if desired. (5 minutes)

For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a pinch of red pepper flakes to the marinade.
If you don't have time to marinate the chicken for 6 hours, even a 2-hour marinade will significantly enhance the flavor.
Serve these Tangy Chicken Breasts with a side of quinoa, roasted vegetables, or a crisp green salad for a complete and satisfying meal.
To ensure even cooking, use chicken breasts that are of similar thickness. You can also pound thicker breasts to an even thickness before marinating.

    I was a bit skeptical about the amount of lemon juice, but it turned out perfectly. Not too tart, just the right amount of tang.
