Growing up my grandmother would make this oregano chicken with canned green beans and mushrooms. I loved the chicken but would pick out the green beans which would give it a metallic taste. I love serving this with sauteed mushrooms on the side since my husband isn’t a big fan of mushrooms. This meal takes just 30-35 minutes to cook up in the oven for a delicious family meal!
Ingredients for Oregano Chicken
- 2 chicken breasts (boneless skinless)
- 1 1/2 – 2 tablespoons dried oregano
- 1/4 cup lemon juice
- pinch of salt + pepper
How to make Oregano Chicken
Place the chicken into an oven safe dish.
Cover the chicken with olive oil, oregano, lemon juice, salt and pepper and spread the seasoning around all of the chicken.
Bake the oregano chicken for 30-35 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees F in the thickest part.
I allow it to cool before slicing.
You can slice or I like to chop it up and add it to the oregano oil. We serve over rice with a green veggie on the side, plus mushrooms for me! 🙂

How much olive oil is needed? Is not listed in the ingredients
It depends on the amount of chicken. Sometimes we’ll use 1/3 cup or even as much as 3/4 cup if needed. 🙂
