Lemon-Parsley Grilled Chicken

I'm a big fan of lemon and use it a lot in the spring and summer.  The fresh taste goes well with the season.  And I've really grown to love parsley, which when combined with the lemon in this marinade, is delicious.  I use only Italian Flat Leaf Parsley, as it seems a lot more delicate in texture than regular parsley.  If you're not in love with parsley, you can substitute your herb of choice.

Ingredients

• 2 - 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (filleted)
• juice of 1 lemon
• 1/2 cup fresh parsley (minced)
• 1/2 cup olive oil
• 1/2 teaspoon salt

Directions

	Mince parsley and combine with lemon juice, olive oil, and salt in a medium mixing bowl.
	Fillet chicken breasts, into two or three slices each, depending on thickness. (I like thin chicken fillets, so I fillet mine three times each).
	Add chicken to the marinade in the bowl. Let marinade in the fridge for 15 minutes. Grill over medium heat until cooked through. Serve with grilled veggies and red potatoes.
