How to Make Easy Italian Grill Pan Chicken

  1. In a bowl or resealable container, whisk together the marinade ingredients: 1/4 cup olive oil, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning, 2 cloves garlic (minced), 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper.
  2. Add the chicken breasts to the marinade, ensuring they are fully coated. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight.
  3. Preheat your grill pan over medium-high heat. Once hot, add 1 tablespoon of olive oil to the pan.
  4. Carefully place the chicken breasts in the preheated grill pan.
  5. Cook for 7-8 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). Baste with the remaining marinade during cooking.
  6. If needed, cut open one chicken breast to ensure the inside is cooked through and white.
  7. Once cooked, remove the chicken from the grill pan and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving.
