CHICKEN BREASTS WITH LEMONY THYME MARINADE
- ¼ cup extra virgin olive oil
- 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- 1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme or ½ teaspoon dried thyme
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon crushed hot red pepper
- Four 9-ounce chicken breast halves with bones, skin removed
Instructions:
This is  a great and simple recipe for a delicious dinner. It’s very light and sweet and so easy!
- First yould should whisk the oil, lemon juice, garlic, thyme, salt, and hot pepper in a glass or earthenware shallow baking dish until combined. Add the chicken and turn to coat with the marinade. Refrigerate, turning the chicken occasionally, for at least 1 hour and up to 2 hours. (Or let stand at room temperature for no longer than 1 hour.)
-  Position an oiled broiler rack about 8 inches from the source of the heat and preheat the broiler.
- Remove the chicken from the marinade, reserving the marinade. Place the chicken on the rack, skinned side down. Broil for 10 minutes. Turn the chicken over and baste with the reserved marinade. Broil until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the thickest part of the chicken reads 170°F, about 10 minutes longer. Transfer to a platter and serve hot.
