Fantastic. I used thighs instead of breasts. It was super moist and flavorful.

This was fabulous. Lemon is one of my favorite flavors with chicken, so I knew I was going to love this. I cooked it on my outdoor wood pellet grill, so I didn't get the amazing grill marks -- but it TASTED delicious. Made for Billboard Tag, here in the forums.

Great chicken which we enjoyed. I made as directed except I cooked it in the oven at 400 degrees F. Next time we will use the grill. Delicious which we had with broccoli and rice. Thanks for sharing!

I grilled this tonight for supper. I made as directed except I had to use dried basil and ground oregano. I could not find basil leaves. This was good and moist. I thought it was five stars. My husband did not like it. Too bad for him, I guess. We had it with a fresh salad. I had an apple packet for dessert from this site. I made this for Billboard Recipe Tag 2020 game.

I scaled this down to two breasts and made a slight change to this recipe only because of what I had on hand; I used white wine vinegar instead of the red. It worked perfectly!! What a tasty chicken recipe this is, the chicken is so full of flavor and moist. This will see to many repeats.
