GRILLED CHICKEN WITH LEMON

This is our all time favorite recipe for BBQ chicken breasts with or without the bone; can also substitute legs or wings. You have enough marinade for 6 large half chicken breasts. I usually double the marinade recipe as it freezes very well.


1-6 servings 1-6 half chicken breasts 1-6 servings
1/2 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice 125 mL
1/4 cup olive oil 50 mL
2 tsp dried oregano 10 mL
1 tsp salt 5 mL
1/2 tsp pepper 2 mL
4 large garlic cloves, minced 4
1/2 tsp ground coriander 2 mL


Combine all the marinade ingredients in a jar and shake very, very, well. Put chicken in freezer bag, shake marinade again as the lemon and oil do separate, add about 1/4 cup marinade or enough to thoroughly coat both sides. Refrigerate one to 2 hours (turn them occasionally). Remove chicken from marinade and Grill

NOTE  I have found that blending the marinade in a blender or food processor does help it from separating. I usually serve this with a baked potato, which I first microwave, then put them in the marinade the chicken was in; then place them on the grill, preferably on the top shelf if you have one, and turn occasionally so they don't burn.
