Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Rinse chicken breasts and pat dry. Season well with salt and pepper. Place in a 9 x 13 baking dish.

Combine the olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, and oregano in a small bowl. Pour over chicken breasts.

Bake at 375 for 50-60 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through and no longer pink. While chicken is baking, every 15-20 minutes, spoon some of the lemon oregano mixture over each breast. Enjoy!
