About Lemon garlic chicken breast

Lemon Garlic Chicken Breast is a flavorful, protein-rich dish inspired by Mediterranean cuisine, known for its vibrant and wholesome ingredients. This dish typically features tender chicken breasts marinated in a zesty blend of fresh lemon juice, garlic, olive oil, and herbs like oregano or parsley. The marinade infuses the chicken with a tangy, garlicky flavor while keeping it moist and juicy. Lemon provides a dose of vitamin C, olive oil adds heart-healthy monounsaturated fats, and garlic is rich in antioxidants. Grilling, baking, or pan-searing are common preparations that keep the dish lean and nutritious. Low in carbs and high in protein, this dish supports muscle health and weight management. To balance the dish, pair it with whole grains or a side of vegetables for added fiber and nutrients. However, sodium levels can vary based on seasoning, so mindful preparation is key for those watching their salt intake.
