GRILLED GREEK CHICKEN



Grilled Greek Chicken image

The secret to this simple grilled chicken is a very powerful marinade and 'roasting' it slowly over semi-indirect heat on the grill.

Provided by Chef John

Categories     World Cuisine Recipes     European     Greek

Time 4h35m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 9

6 cloves garlic (or more to taste), crushed or very finely minced
2 tablespoons dried oregano
1 teaspoon red pepper flakes, or to taste
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
½ cup lemon juice
¼ cup olive oil
1 tablespoon distilled white vinegar
6 chicken leg quarters
1 lemon, cut into wedges

Steps:

  • Whisk garlic, oregano, red pepper flakes, black pepper, lemon juice, olive oil, and vinegar together in a large bowl.
  • Make 2 slashes on the skin side down to the bone in the thigh section and 1 in the leg section of each leg quarter. This will help infuse pieces with marinade and allow faster cooking on the grill. Season both sides of chicken generously with kosher salt. Transfer to bowl with marinade and thoroughly coat all sides. Cover and marinate in refrigerator 4 to 12 hours.
  • Transfer chicken to paper-towel-lined sheet pan to drain slightly.
  • Place leg quarters on grill skin side down over semi-direct heat (avoid intense direct heat so chicken cooks evenly and skin doesn't burn). Cook 6 or 7 minutes. Turn chicken and cook another 6 to 7 minutes. Continue cooking and turning until internal temperature reaches 165 degrees F (74 degrees C), 8 to 10 more minutes. Serve with lemon wedges.

GREEK MARINADE FOR GRILLED CHICKEN



Greek Marinade for Grilled Chicken image

Chicken marinade with olive oil, garlic, oregano, thyme, lemon juice and red wine vinegar. Perfect for grilling or for souvlaki. Great with pork or lamb also.

Provided by Steve Cylka

Categories     Main

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
1/3 cup olive oil
1/4 cup red wine vinegar
2 tbsp lemon juice
4 garlic cloves (, minced)
1 tbsp oregano
2 tsp thyme
1 tsp salt
1 tsp ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Mix all the ingredients, minus the chicken breast in a mason jar or a bowl.
  • Place the chicken breasts in a dish and pour the marinade over them, turning them in the marinade to ensure that they are completely coated. Cover the dish with a lid or plastic wrap and place in the fridge for at least an hour.
  • Preheat grill to medium high heat, around 450F.
  • Place the chicken on a hot grill and close the lid. After the chicken has cooked for about 5 minutes, lift the lid and turn the chicken breasts over. Close the lid and let the chicken cook some more. The chicken is finished cooking when the meat has an internal temperature of 165F, when checked with a digital thermometer. Grilling boneless skinless chicken breast takes about 12-15 minutes, but can vary depending on the size and thickness of the meat.
  • Remove from the grill and let the chicken breast rest for a few minutes before serving to allow the juices to draw back into the centre of the meat.
  • Serve with tzatziki, greek salad, and rice.
