Grilled Greek Chicken

    Great change of pace recipe for grilled chicken. My daughter loves it!

    Chef Colt, I pounded my chicken out evenly before marinading and grilled it in my barrel smoker over lowered direct heat. It only took around thirty minutes, if that.

    Grilled Greek Chicken,Ohhhh, so good, especially serves with Greek Lemon Potatoes from Zaar chefs. YUMMY! from Everyday FOODS magazine. Note: This is VERY LEMONY, adjust lemon ingredients to your preference.,Great change of pace recipe for grilled chicken. My daughter loves it!

    Chef Colt, I pounded my chicken out evenly before marinading and grilled it in my barrel smoker over lowered direct heat. It only took around thirty minutes, if that.,Great Marinade, Great chicken. We like the lemon marinade so much we double it. Only problem I see with this recipe is the cooking time. I’d like to know what grill will cook 4 chicken halves in 20 minutes. I want one! Figure at least 1 hr 15 mins instead cooking between 375 and 400 degrees.
