Preparation Steps
In a large bowl, combine the chicken pieces, minced garlic, lemon juice, olive oil, oregano, salt, and pepper. Toss to coat the chicken evenly.
Let the chicken marinate for at least 15 minutes, or up to 30 minutes in the refrigerator.
Heat a large skillet or frying pan over medium-high heat. Add the marinated chicken and any remaining marinade to the skillet.
Cook the chicken for 5-7 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Ensure the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
Pour in the chicken broth and scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan.
Simmer for 2-3 minutes until the sauce has slightly thickened.
Garnish with fresh chopped parsley before serving.

Serve with rice, pasta, or a fresh salad for a complete meal.
