Ingredients
  

Chicken
  • 4 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
Marinade
  • 1 cup Italian dressing store-bought or homemade
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil optional for extra richness
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper

Method
 

Marinate the Chicken
  1. In a mixing bowl, combine the Italian dressing, olive oil, garlic powder, oregano, and black pepper.
  2. Add the chicken breasts to the marinade, ensuring they are well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 4 hours for more flavor.
Cook the Chicken
  1. Preheat the grill to medium-high heat or the oven to 375?F (190?C).
  2. Remove the chicken from the marinade and discard the marinade.
  3. If grilling, cook the chicken for 6-8 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165?F (75?C). If baking, place the chicken in a baking dish and bake for 25-30 minutes.
  4. Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before slicing and serving.
