  • One 2½-to 3-pound chicken
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon pepper
  • 1/3 cup olive oil
  • ¼ cup lemon juice
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon finely-chopped parsley
  • 2 teaspoons dried oregano
  • ¼ teaspoon marjoram

  • How To Cook:
    1. Wash and quarter the chicken or cut it into serving pieces. Drain. Place the chicken, skin-side down in an 8-inch by 8-inch dish.

    2. Arrange the thick portion of each piece of chicken toward the outer perimeter of the dish. Mix the other ingredients and spoon over the chicken.

    3. Cover with wax paper and cook 23 minutes or until almost tender. Remove wax paper and turn chicken over, keeping the thicker portion of each piece turned to the outer edge of the baking dish.

    4. Cook 5 minutes more, uncovered.

    TIP:
        Any food around the edge of a dish or the edge of a circle of food cooks more rapidly than food in the center. Take advantage of this when cooking irregularly-shaped pieces of food. Uncovering during the last few minutes of cooking allows the chicken to be slightly crisper than it would be if left covered.
