Ingredients

  • 1½ lbs boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut in strips
  • 1 cup minced parsley (about ½ "bunch")
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • ⅓ cup olive oil
  • ¼ cup red wine vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon coarse grind black pepper
  • ½ teaspoon dried oregano or 1 teaspoon fresh oregano
  • ¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper

Directions

1

Combine all ingredients in a plastic zipper bag.

2

Marinate chicken strips for at least 4 hours.

3

Remove chicken from marinade; discard remaining marinade.

4

Chicken is best if grilled (perfect threaded on a skewer), but can be pan-fried until very brown for about 5 minutes per "side" or until thoroughly cooked.
