This dish is really, really easy. I didn't have fresh rosemany so I substitued a teaspoon of crushed rosemary and it turned out great.

This is incredible! I used boneless skinless chicken breasts and placed them in the marinade before I froze them. I then thawed over night. I grilled the chicken and it came out perfect. I used a teaspoon each of the dried herbs. The chicken had a great strong lemony taste, plus the hint of the garlic and herbs gave it great kick. I cooked my chicken about 10 minutes per side and they turned out perfect. I can't wait to make again.

A nice way to use fresh garden herbs. I marinated overnight and it tasted good, but not great. The cooking time was about 10-15 per side.

I am a caterer and made this for a wedding rehearsal dinner a few months ago. It was a huge hit! I used boneless, skinless chicken breasts and pounded them so that they were uniform in thickness. I marinated the chicken for 2 days & grilled them about 3 1/2 minutes per side. I garnished the platter with lemon halves, roasted heads of garlic & sprigs of fresh rosemary. My only suggestion is to be careful with the fresh oregano...it is very pungent, so don't get carried away!!

Very juicy and easy to make. I used boneless, skinless breasts, bottled lemon juice and dried herbs - wish I had a mortar and pestle to crush the rosemary. The first time I made this, I only used two breasts but kept the rest of the ingredients the same. I marinated for an hour and then cooked them on the George Foreman grill - delicious! The 2nd time I made four breasts w/the same amount of marinade - not quite as flavorful but still very good. I recommend adding more spices & garlic than the recipe calls for if you like a stronger flavor.

I made this last night, and it was fabulous. We had it with pitas, tomatoes, onions and lettuce. I used chicken breast tenders, and didn't grill it for an hour - It would have been to dry. I highly recommend it!

Simple and good! I served with Greek Orzo Salad and garlic french bread topped with chopped tomatoes, feta cheese, & chopped olives and got many compliments. Didn't grill the chicken - I baked at 350 for an hour as per suggestion of another review... next time I think I'll try and cover with foil so the chicken is a little more moist.

My 13-year-old daughter, who suddenly hates everything I put in front of her, absolutely loved this recipe! I've already made it twice in the last 3 weeks. Because it is too cold out to use my grill right now, I put the chicken in the oven for an hour at 350 degrees F. Served with wild rice, salad, and hot dinner rolls made dinner a hit in my house!
