Ingredients
The following ingredients have 4 Servings
- 1.25 kg / 2.5 lb drumsticks and chicken thighs (, bone in skin on (Note 1))
- 6 garlic cloves (, minced (~ 2 tbsp))
- 2 tbsp white wine vinegar ((or red wine or apple cider vinegar))
- 1/2 cup / 125 ml lemon juice
- 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- 3/4 cup Greek yogurt ((I use Farmers Union))
- 1 1/2 tbsp dried oregano
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- Plain Greek yogurt or Tzatziki
- Fresh oregano leaves ((optional))
Instruction
- Mix Marinade ingredients in a large bowl.
- Add chicken and coat well. Marinade for 24 hours (3 hours minimum).
- Preheat oven to 180C.350F.
- Line a tray with foil (trust me), place rack on tray (optional).
- Place chicken on rack (reserve marinade), skin side up. Bake 30 minutes,
- Remove from oven. Brush with marinade - do not flip.
- Return to oven for 20 minutes or until golden and a bit crispy. Give it a spray of olive oil just before it's done if you want an extra crispy, shiny coat.
- Rest for a few minutes before serving. Juicy and tasty enough to serve plain but extra great with tzatziki or even some plain yogurt.
