Greek Chicken

Greek Chicken

Here I present a recipe for traditional Greek Chicken that’s grilled after marinating in lemon juice and tons of fresh garlic, herbs and spices 🙂

In high school one of the electives I chose was cooking or Food Nutrition or whatever it was called… it was many, many, many moons ago 🤣

In this course we had to work in groups and highlight a country’s cuisine of our choice. We chose Greece and we made spanakopita. What does this have to do with Greek Chicken?

It’s Greek

Now when I think of Greek food, I’m sorry to say, I think of food court food.

I said I’m sorry!

That rice and salad and potatoes and souvlaki and tzatziki… yum!

I haven’t had food court Greek food in a very long time but it will forever hold a special place in my heart ♥️

This is how you make it

Whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, vinegar, oregano, cumin, salt, pepper and finally garlic, in a deep dish .

Add in the chicken breasts and marinate the meat for 1-2 hours (covered and in the fridge).

Then follow my Guide to the Ultimate Grilled Chicken.

Enjoy!

It’s really hard to top the flavour of the BBQ in my humble opinion but that recipes comes so close!
