Directions
Step 1
In a bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, basil, parsley, thyme, minced garlic, salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes to create the marinade.
Step 2
Place chicken breasts in a large resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish.

Grill the chicken for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until a meat thermometer reads an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).
