This chicken had great flavor due to the marinade. I really appreciated the short marination time since I forgot to prep. Luckily, I only had to wait 20 minutes or so before putting the chicken on the grill. This made for a quick, yummy, and healthy meal. Thank you!

I love grilled lemon chicken and the fresh lime juice was a nice addition. Enjoyed the zip from the oregano and chili powder perfect amount for us. Marinated in the refrigerator for about 4 hours and had very moist chicken breasts. Served with dutch oven potatoes and cucumber salad. Made and reviewed FYC tag game.

A super marinade with delicious results! The flavor was all through the chicken and it made such a great meal for me and a friend of mine. I love grilling in the summer so I don't heat up my apt. Thank you so much for sharing it with us Teresa! Linda
