Athenian Chicken On The Grill Recipe - Cooking Index
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 |
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 350F oven for one hour, basting several times. Serve with a Greek salad and a loaf of crust bread.
NOTES: Bobbie's notes: I also used the marinade to marinate some Portobello mushrooms for a vegetarian in our party. I substituted Greek Retzina wine for the roditis. Everyone said it was moist and delicious.
