Athenian Chicken On The Grill (Greek Menu 1)

Recipe Ingredients

6		Chicken breasts
1/2 cup	118ml	Roditis wine
1/2 cup	118ml	Olive oil
1/4 cup	59ml	Freshly squeezed lemon juice
2 tablespoons	30ml	Dried oregano
1 teaspoon	5ml	Dried thyme
1 teaspoon	5ml	Dried basil
1 teaspoon	5ml	Salt
1/2 teaspoon	2.5ml	Pepper

Recipe Instructions

Rinse chicken and pat dry. In a large bowl, combine wine, oil, lemon juice, herbs, salt and pepper. Add chicken breasts, cover and marinate overnight. Cook on an outdoor grill, basting occasionally with remaining marinade. This can also be baked in a 350 F. oven for one hour, basting several times. Serve with a Greek salad and a loaf of crust bread.

Hints

NOTES: Bobbie's notes: I also used the marinade to marinate some Portobella mushrooms for a vegetarian in our party. I substituted Greek Retzina wine for the roditis. Everyone said it was moist and delicious.
