Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1/4 cup lemon juice
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 3 cups zucchini, sliced
  • 2 cups barley, cooked

Instructions

  1. 1

    In a shallow baking dish, combine the lemon juice, garlic, 1 tbsp olive oil, oregano, salt, and pepper. Add the chicken breasts and turn to coat both sides. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.

  2. 2
