My mother loves watching cooking shows, and one of her current favorites is Q TV’s Quickfire: 10-minute kitchen wonders with Chef Rosebud Benitez. That’s probably where she got the idea of this simple chicken dish.

When my mother first asked me to try this, I was skeptical because it didn’t really look good. Plus, it’s chicken breast, and I’m wary that it’d be dry. However, I was in for a surprise — it tasted good and it was moist! I was an instant convert, and I’ve been cooking this dish every week.

Grilled Oregano Chicken

Ingredients
4 pieces chicken breast fillet
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 teaspoon dried oregano
2 tablespoon olive oil

  1. Combine all ingredients together.
  2. Grill chicken over medium heat. Chicken breast cook very quickly, and will easily dry up if overcooked. Cook each side for about 1 minute.

Now isn’t that easy and fast? I personally prefer thigh fillets, but this recipe made me like chicken breast. But hmm, maybe I should try it with chicken thigh fillet next time…

    Oregano is one of my favorite spices specially for grilled recipes, its also the secret spice of Lucban’s famous longanisa…
