Broiled Chicken Oregano
Ingredients:
4 ea Chicken breast
1 ea Garlic clove; quartered
MARINADE
1/3 c Lemon juice
1/3 c Olive oil
1 x Salt & pepper to taste
3 T Oregano; fresh or 1 tbsp dr
1 x —-basting ingredients—-
5 T Butter; melted
1/3 c Lemon juice
3 T Oregano; fresh or 1 tbsp dr
Instructions:
Several hours before serving-or the day before, if time allows, rub the
chicken pieces pieces with the garlic and place them in a deep china or
earthenware bowl. Combine marinade ingredients and the garlic clove and
pour over chicken. Cover the bowl and refrigerate the chicken. Turn chicken
pieces occasionally. When ready to cook, preheat the broiler to its highest
setting. Arrange the chicken pieces on the broiler rack and baste with a
little of the melted butter mixture. (Reserve part of the basting mixture to
serve over the chicken when served.) Broil the chicken 3-4 inches from the
heat for 5-8 minutes per side, basting often. Chicken is done when juices
run clear when pierced with a sharp knife. Remove to serving platter, pour
reserved basting mixture over the chicken breasts and serve immediately.
This is also good done on a BBQ.
