Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 12 oz can frozen lemonade concentrate, defrosted, divided
  • 5 or 6 sprigs fresh oregano -OR- 1 tsp dried (see NOTES)
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic (crushed)
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp pepper
  • 1 whole chicken (about 3 lbs cut into parts -OR- equivalent amount of parts)

Instruction

  • Make marinade: In a small bowl, mix 1/2 the can of lemonade concentrate, the oregano, the oil and salt and pepper. Mix well.
  • Place the chicken in a zipper freezer or storage bag. Pour marinade over chicken, turning the bag a few times to coat chicken.
  • Place chicken in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours; overnight is better.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. (see NOTES)
  • Drain chicken and discard marinade.
  • Place chicken on a baking sheet and bake for 45-60 minutes (time depends on size of parts)
  • While chicken is baking, prepare glaze by placing the remaining half of the lemonade concentrate in a small saucepan and reduce by 50% over medium heat--about 5-8 minutes.
  • About 5 minutes before chicken is done, glaze each piece with the prepared glaze.
