Ingredients

Scale
  • 2/3 cup olive oil
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh rosemary leaves
  • 4 teaspoons grated lemon peel
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon lemon-pepper seasoning
  • 1/3 cup fresh lemon juice

Instructions

  1. In large bowl or resealable food-storage plastic bag, mix all ingredients except chicken. Add chicken; turn to coat. Cover bowl or seal bag; refrigerate at least 1 hour or up to 4 hours to marinate.
  2. Heat gas or charcoal grill. Remove chicken from marinade; reserve marinade. Place chicken, skin side down, on grill over medium heat. Cook 10 minutes.
  3. Brush chicken with marinade; turn chicken. Cook 20 to 30 minutes longer, turning and brushing frequently with marinade, until juice of chicken is clear when thickest piece is cut to bone (170Β°F for breasts; 180Β°F for thighs and legs). Discard any remaining marinade.
