|
4 servings chicken pieces
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice 2 tablespoons olive oil 2 tablespoons spicy mustard |
1 tablespoon honey
1 teaspoon freshly grated lemon zest 2 cloves minced garlic 1 tablespoon chopped fresh rosemary or other fresh herb |
- In a small bowl, mix lemon juice, olive oil, mustard, honey, lemon zest garlic and rosemary.
- Using a paring knife, gently separate the skin from the meat to form a pocket. (The skin should still be attached to the perimeter of the chicken pieces.) Spoon some of the marinade into the pocket you just created.
- Pour the rest of the marinade over the chicken pieces and refrigerate at least 2 hours.
- Grill indirectly turning chicken over 1/2 way. Cook until done, about 30-45 minutes depending on size.
