Cooked per recipe verbatim and, to the point, fantastic meal. I look forward to making this marinade again. Cut it up after grilling and used in a salad. This is on my top 5 chicken marinades!

Delicious marinade. Good use of fresh herbs from the garden.

I didn't have white wine or fresh herbs on hand, so I modified it a little and it turned out amazing! I used (for 6 servings): 1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil, 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice, 3 tablespoons apple cider vinegar, 1 teaspoon dried basil, 1 teaspoon dried parsley, 1/8 teaspoon dried rosemary, 1/8 teaspoon dried thyme , 3 cloves garlic minced, 1-1/2 teaspoons fresh-ground black pepper, 3/4 teaspoon salt. I would use this marinade over a soy sauce marinade any day, and it's way healthier!

I had high hopes for this as even though there were not many reviews, most of them were good. I really wanted to love this, considering I had all the fresh herbs for this straight from my garden and stuck to the exact ingredients and marinated overnight. Overwhelming taste of lemon, none of the vinegar and nothing to offset that taste. I'll stick to my own garlic/herb marinade that uses all of the same herbs, but with white wine vinegar and honey from now on. Thanks, but sorry, no go for my family.

This is a great marinade. I love it just the way it's written as well as with 2 tbsp's soy sauce and 1 tbsp brown sugar. I usually use dry herbs because that's what I have on hand. Wonderful!

Not very impressive compared to others I have tried on this site. I let the chicken marinate overnight as well. Was just okay as an entree, but was better the next day used in sandwiches and salads. Would never eat this alone as an entree in the future.

Fabulous chicken marinade! I used this on boneless skinless chicken breasts (about 4) and I followed the recipe exactly. I poked the chicken with fork, put every thing into a ziploc bag and let it marinate overnight (which I highly suggest). I grilled it with a fresh sprig of rosemary and WOW -it came out so moist, juicy and full of the delicate flavor from the fresh herbs. It's a definite keeper. I served this with a side dish of "Bow Tie Pasta with Broccoli, Garlic and Lemon" from this site. Thanks for a great recipe, JustDMarine!

My chicken turned out moist, tender, and delicious. I was only able to marinate about two hours before grilling, but that was plenty of time. I'm sure it would have been even more flavorful if allowed to marinate the full 8 hours. Thanks for sharing the recipe!

This recipe was great, but it's imparative that fresh herbs be used. I tried using dried basil, parsley and thyme, because all I had fresh was rosemary. The result was an overpowering flavor of rosemary. I suggest following the recipe. It's great as it's stated. PS I put the chicken/marinade in the freezer and just the thaw time allowed for perfect marinating time and the grilled chicken was quite juicy.

The chicken was very juicy, but was lacking in flavor. I let sit in the marniade for 6 hours and used fresh lemon juice. I was expecting much more flavor.
