Time 6h50m

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 lbs 14 count Chicken Legs or drumsticks
1/4 cup olive oil ((Use light oil, not extra virgin))
4 garlic cloves (pressed or minced)
4 Tbsp fresh parsley (finely chopped)
3 Tbsp lemon juice from 1 large lemon
2 Tbsp dijon mustard
1 Tbsp salt ((we use fine sea salt))
1/2 tsp black pepper

Steps:

  • In a small bowl, combine all of the marinade ingredients and stir or whisk together until well blended .
  • Transfer chicken legs to a large mixing bowl or a large ziploc bag. Pour the marinade over the chicken and toss with your hands to evenly coat the chicken, pushing some of the marinade under the skin of each chicken leg for richer flavor. Cover with plastic wrap and marinate 6 hours or overnight, tossing chicken once while marinating.
  • Preheat oven to 400˚F and line a rimmed baking sheet with foil or a silpat. Arrange chicken skin-side-down and bring chicken to room temp while oven preheats. Brush chicken legs with any extra marinade left in the mixing bowl. Bake at 400˚F in the center of oven for 25 minutes skin-side-down then turn the chicken legs over and bake additional 25 minutes skin-side-up. For crispier skin, broil on high heat 2 to 3 minutes or until skins have browned.*

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
4 garlic cloves, minced
1 tablespoon dried oregano (preferably Greek), crumbled
2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
1 (4 1/2- to 5-lb) butterflied boneless leg of lamb, trimmed of fat
3 10- to 12-inch metal skewers
Special Equipment
a large (2-gallon) heavy-duty sealable plastic bag; 3 or 4 (10- to 12-inch) metal skewers

Steps:

  • Combine oil, lemon juice, garlic, oregano, salt, and pepper in sealable plastic bag. Add lamb and seal bag, pressing out air. Turn bag to coat lamb, then put bag in a shallow baking pan and marinate, chilled, turning bag over occasionally, at least 8 hours.
  • Bring lamb to room temperature, about 1 hour, before grilling.
  • Prepare grill for cooking over direct heat with medium-hot charcoal (moderate heat for gas); see Grilling Procedure.
  • Remove lamb from marinade (discard marinade) and run 3 or 4 skewers lengthwise through lamb about 2 inches apart. Grill on a lightly oiled grill rack, covered only if using gas grill, turning over occasionally and, if necessary, moving around on grill to avoid flare-ups, until thermometer registers 125 to 128°F, 8 to 14 minutes total for medium-rare.
  • Transfer lamb to a cutting board and remove skewers. Let lamb stand, loosely covered with foil, 20 minutes. (Internal temperature will rise to 135°F while meat stands.) Cut across the grain into slices.

PETE'S TERIYAKI MARINADE



Pete's Teriyaki Marinade image

Our good friend Pete was a chef at a local steak house for many years, and this an excellent marinade he created to use on shish kebabs. Pete passed away several years ago, but everytime we make kebabs, we use this marinade and remember our dear friend. This would also be good with steaks or thick-cut pork chops.
