LEMON OREGANO DRUMSTICKS

I doubled the recipe here for my group. These are so so good – I make them all the time. Love the fact that there’s fresh lemons and oregano and that you don’t need any utensils to eat them.

2 TBSP fresh lemon juice 
2 TBSP coarsely chopped fresh oregano 
2 garlic cloves, pressed 
1 TBSP extra-virgin olive oil 
1 1/2 tsp coarse kosher salt 
1 tsp finely grated lemon peel 
8 chicken drumsticks 

Whisk first 6 ingredients in small bowl. 

Season to taste with freshly ground black pepper. Pour marinade into 1-gallon resealable plastic bag or large container; add chicken and seal. Turn bag to coat chicken.

Marinate at room temperature 30 minutes or in refrigerator up to 2 days, turning occasionally. 

Prepare grill (medium-high heat). Place chicken, with some marinade still clinging, on grill rack; grill chicken until cooked through and golden brown on all sides, turning frequently, about 30 minutes. Transfer to plates and serve.
