Lemon Oregano Chicken
I found this recipe on the internet at a blog I like to browse, justJENN. It was relatively simple, I made the marinate the night before and just cooked the chicken once I got home.
1. Mix: olive oil (1/4 c.), the juice of half a lemon, pepper, garlic salt, and 2 teaspoons oregano. (The recipe called for 2 teaspoons of garlic salt, but this savory-loving girl will add more next time).
2. Bake in the oven at 450 degrees, 15 minutes on each side, pouring the extra marinate on top.
This one came out only okay. The lemon taste was really strong -- I think I need to lighten up on the marinate time, the amount of lemon juice, or increase the other flavors. I'm wondering how a little butter would be on top. I think part of the problem was that I used chicken breast instead of chicken thighs. Que sera, sera...
Served with white rice and something green -- green beans probably. And a zucchini dish that I will blog about later because it deserves it's own post. :)
