Marinade

Method

Marinade Preparation

1

Prepare the Marinade

In a large bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper until well combined.

Chicken Preparation

2

Marinate the Chicken

Place the chicken thighs and breasts into a large resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the chicken, ensuring all pieces are well coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or overnight for more flavor.

3

Preheat the Grill

Preheat the grill to medium-high heat (about 375°F to 450°F).

4

Grill the Chicken

Remove the chicken from the marinade, allowing excess marinade to drip off. Place the chicken skin-side down on the grill. Cook for about 6-7 minutes on the first side until grill marks appear.

5

Flip and Finish Cooking

Flip the chicken pieces over and reduce the heat to medium. Continue grilling for another 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).

6

Rest and Serve

Remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for 5-10 minutes before serving. This helps the juices redistribute, making the chicken moist and flavorful.
