Greek Chicken

Here is a great variation grilled chicken. Serve it with a sliced tomatoes, Feta cheese, garlic bread and a cold bottle of Chateau Saint Michelle Pinot Gris ($12.99 at Cool Springs Wine & Spirits).

Ingredients
1/2 cup olive oil
3 cloves garlic, chopped
1 tablespoon chopped fresh rosemary
1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme
1 tablespoon chopped fresh oregano
2 lemons, juiced
1 (4 pound) chicken, cut into pieces

Directions
1. In a glass dish, mix the olive oil, garlic, rosemary, thyme, oregano, and lemon juice. Place the chicken pieces in the mixture, cover, and marinate in the refrigerator 8 hours or overnight.

2. Preheat grill for high heat.

3. Lightly oil the grill grate. Place chicken on the grill, and discard the marinade. Cook chicken pieces up to 15 minutes per side, until juices run clear. Smaller pieces will not take as long.
