This is tasty. It does have a predominant lemon flavor, but it is good. I think it would be even better with fish. Have to try that next time. I would definitely make this again. I only used half of the marinade for about 2 lbs of boneless skinless chicken breasts.

Oh man, I DON'T understand why this recipe is 4 stars! It deserves 5 stars! Anyone who complains it is too lemony, or too vinegary is NOT being fair. What do people expect if that is the two main ingredients to this marinade? Yes, I would classify this as more of a lemon italian chicken. The vinegar complements the lemon. I only let this sit for less then two hours and I would suggest the same. It already had a very tangy lemon taste, and I can see how it might be overpowering if it was left too long to sit. Pair this with a light pasta dish, a salad, and you wont be disapointed!

I used 1/2 Realemon and 1/2 Realime as I didn't have sufficient lemon juice on hand. I increased the garlic powder to 1 T. and used 6 large skinless, boneless chicken breasts which I sliced in 1/2. The chicken breasts cooked on the grill only 5 mins. per side and were juicy and tasty. I made zucchini and tomatoes as a topping for the leftovers. Delicious! This is an easy, go-to recipe which adapts well to different spices.

I halved the lemon juice, used fresh garlic (about 3 cloves), and used boneless skinless chicken breasts. I marinated this for about an hour before throwing on the grill. This was pretty darn good.

WOW! Best BBQ chicken I've ever made. The only thing I did differently was instead of making the marinade I had a bottle of store bought Lawry's Caribbean Jerk Chicken marinade. After soaking in the brine I poured it out and combined chicken into one bag as directed and 1 bottle of the marinade was plenty. I used Sweet Baby Ray's Sweet Vidalia BBQ sauce. GREAT flavor!!

Fantastic! We made this up ahead of time, put it and the chicken in a large zip-lock bag and went camping. It was way too windy to have a fire or to even cook outdoors with a grill so we decided we'd have to cook dinner on the stove. We put everything, marinade and all, into a big pot and put the burner on the lowest possible setting and cooked it that way -- it was less of a marinade and more of a "brine" and now EVERYONE asks for chicken that way. If I could give this more than 5 stars I would. THANKS!

It was easy to make, however I did not care for the strong vinegar taste. I will not likely ever remake this recipe.

This is the perfect marinade I was looking for. I would add a splash of white wine to the marinade as well and maybe let it marinate a little longer

I made this again tonight and it is so easy and so tasty. Be very generous with the spices. I baste about 4 times during cooking. I once omitted the celery because I didn't have any, and it was not as juicy.
