Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
• 2 teaspoons dried oregano
• 2 garlic cloves, crushed
• 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
• 1 1/2 teaspoons coarse kosher salt
• 1 teaspoon lemon zest
• 4 chicken drumsticks

Directions

1. Whisk lemon juice, oregano, garlic, olive oil, salt and lemon zest in a small bowl. Season to taste with freshly ground black pepper. Pour marinade into 1-gallon resealable plastic bag; add chicken and seal. Turn bag to coat chicken. Marinate at room temperature 30 minutes or in refrigerator up to 2 days, turning occasionally (I marinated for about 2 hours).

2. Prepare grill by heading to medium-high heat. Place chicken, with some marinade still clinging, on the grill rack. Grill chicken until cooked through and golden brown on all sides, turning frequently, about 30 minutes.
