Grilled Chicken Legs Recipe
One of my kid's favorites... and mine too! Grilled is one of the best methods used when enjoying an outdoor lunch with the family!
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons coarsely chopped fresh oregano
- 2 garlic cloves, pressed
- 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 1/2 teaspoons coarse kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon finely grated lemon peel
- 8 chicken drumsticks
Directions
- Whisk first 6 ingredients in small bowl. Season to taste with freshly ground black pepper.
- Pour marinade into 1-gallon resealable plastic bag; add chicken and seal. Turn bag to coat chicken.
