I adapted an old recipe for whole grilled chickens into a wing version for tailgating parties. You can marinade the chicken pieces ahead of time and transport to cooking site. Ingredients:
3 lbs chicken wings, prepared frozen pieces, thawed, rinsed and dried |
1/4 cup olive oil |
2 lemons, juice only |
1/4 cup oregano, fresh, leaves only |
3 garlic cloves, minced |
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt |
1/4 teaspoon black pepper, coarsely ground |
Directions:
1. Place thawed chicken wings into gallon size zip top bag.
2. Combine olive oil, lemon juice, oregano, garlic, salt and pepper in a small mixing bowl. Pour over chicken pieces and seal bag. Refrigerate chicken pieces for at least two hours, turning over at least once during this time.
3. Preheat gas grill on high for five minutes.
4. Remove chicken pieces from marinade and place onto baking sheet lined with paper towels. Discard excess marinade.
5. Turn inside burners to medium low while leaving outside burners on high. Place chicken pieces on middle of grill skin side up. Cover and cook for 7 minutes. Turn pieces over and cook for another 5-7 minutes or until meat thermometer indicates 170 degrees F.
6. Serve while hot and juicy! Enjoy!
