Greek Roasted Chicken - cooking recipe
Ingredients
-
3 -4 lbs chicken (whole, split in half, cut-up, or chicken parts of your choice)
1/4 cup lemon juice
1/2 cup olive oil
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
Preparation
-
Wash your chicken and pat it dry with paper towels.
Combine the lemon juice, olive oil, salt, and pepper and stir them together well. If you're using a whole chicken, rub it all over with some of this mixture, making sure to rub plenty inside the body cavity, as well. If you're using cut-up chicken, put it in a large zip-lock bag, pour the marinade over the chicken and seal the bag.
Let the chicken marinade for at least an hour, or as long as a day.
At least 1 hour before you want to serve the chicken, pull it out of the bag. You can either grill your chicken or you can roast it in a 375 degree oven for about 1 hour. Either way, cook it until the juices run clear when it's pierced to the bone.
