How to Make Another Garlic Chicken

  1. In a large shallow glass dish, whisk together 1/4 cup olive oil, 1/4 cup lemon juice, 2 tablespoons minced garlic, 1 teaspoon dried oregano, 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, and 1/2 teaspoon paprika.
  2. Add 1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts to the marinade.
  3. Turn chicken to ensure even coating.
  4. Cover and refrigerate for 3-4 hours, or preferably overnight.
  5. Place 1 1/2 cups of crushed cracker crumbs in a shallow bowl.
  6. Remove chicken from marinade (reserve marinade) and roll each piece in the cracker crumbs until fully coated.
  7. Transfer coated chicken to a greased 13x9 baking dish.
  8. In a small bowl, melt 1/4 cup butter with 2 tablespoons olive oil.
  9. Pour the butter-oil mixture evenly over the chicken. Drizzle reserved marinade over chicken for extra flavor.
  10. Bake, uncovered, at 350°F (175°C) for 50-60 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the juices run clear. A meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the chicken should read 165°F (74°C).
