About

These simple chicken pieces are crispy and flavorful thanks to a lemon and herb marinade. The bright green marinade is delicious, so consider making extra to chop the chicken with after cooking, or as a sauce or dip for vegetables. Serve these with your favorite veggie side dish.

Ingredients

  • 4 medium chicken thigh with skin
  • 4 medium chicken drumstick with skin
  • 3 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 medium – 2 1/8" diameter lemon, fresh
  • 4 tablespoon dill weed, fresh
  • 2 tablespoon, chopped basil
  • 3 tablespoon, chopped parsley
  • 2 tablespoon, chopped cilantro
  • 4 clove garlic
  • ¾ teaspoon salt

Instructions

  1. Add all of the ingredients except the chicken into a blender.
  2. Blend until smooth and set marinade aside.
