List of Ingredients




1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon white pepper
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon oregano
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 cup lemon juice
1/4 cup vegetable oil
4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves

Recipe



Combine the dry spices in a small bowl. In a shallow glass dish large enough to hold the chicken in a single layer, place the lemon juice and oil. Add half of the spice mix; stir to combine.

Add the chicken breasts, turning to coat both sides. Marinate for 30 to 60 minutes at room temperature or 2 to 3 hours (or overnight) in the refrigerator, covered.

Drain the chicken and sprinkle both sides with the remaining seasoning mix. Place the breasts on a hot grill with the thin ends away from the flames. Cook, turning once, until just cooked through, 3 to 8 minutes per side, depending on the heat intensity and the thickness of the meat.
