By marxpatricia

Ingredients

• 4 (6-ounce) skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
• 5 teaspoons grated lemon rind
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 1/2 teaspoons dried oregano
• 3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
• 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
• 1/4 teaspoon water
• 2 garlic cloves, minced
• Cooking spray
• 4 lemon wedges
• 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley

Preparation

Step 1

Prepare grill.

Place each chicken breast half between 2 sheets of heavy-duty plastic wrap, and pound to 1/4-inch thickness using a meat mallet or rolling pin.

Combine lemon rind and next 6 ingredients (through minced garlic); rub evenly over both sides of chicken. Place chicken on a grill rack coated with cooking spray, and grill 3 minutes on each side or until chicken is done.
Remove from heat. Squeeze 1 lemon wedge evenly over each chicken breast half. Sprinkle parsley evenly over chicken.
