Greek Style Garlic Chicken
1 Chicken, cut-up (3-4 pounds)
2-1/2 teaspoons Oregano
1 teaspoon Kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon Pepper
5 cloves Garlic
2 Tablespoons Lemon juice
1 1/2 Tablespoons Olive oil
Pre-heat the oven to 350. Lightly oil a large casserole dish.
Add the chicken pieces. Rub the skin with the oregano, salt and pepper. Peel and
thinly slice the garlic. Top the chicken with the garlic and lemon juice. Place
some of the spices between the skin and the meat. Allow the chicken to sit,
covered, in the refrigerator for 1 hour.
Drizzle the oil on the chicken and bake for 50-60 minutes (or until tender and
lightly brown). Baste often. Serve warm with your favorite rice dish.
