Pressed chicken is a delicious and flavorful dish that is perfect for any occasion. The chicken is marinated in a flavorful mixture and then pressed to create a tender and juicy texture. This recipe is easy to make and will impress your family and friends.

Ingredients:

• 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 1/4 cup olive oil
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 teaspoon dried thyme
• 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions:

1. In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, dried thyme, dried rosemary, salt, and black pepper.
2. Place the chicken breasts in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them. Make sure the chicken is well coated. Cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or overnight for best results.
3. Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.
4. Remove the chicken from the marinade and discard the excess marinade.
5. Place the chicken on the grill and cook for about 6-8 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
6. Once cooked, remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes.
7. Using a heavy object, such as a cast iron skillet, place it on top of the chicken breasts to press them down. Leave the skillet on top for about 5 minutes to help flatten the chicken and enhance the flavors.
8. Remove the skillet and serve the pressed chicken hot. It pairs well with a side of roasted vegetables or a fresh salad.
