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
- Combine all ingredients together.
- 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…
Na-intriga na talaga ako dyan sa Lucban longganisa ah. Kelan ba tayo punta sa Quezon? 😀
