Grilled Lemon Chicken By Kelly Miller • June26,2014 • Updated January 17, 2022 • 2 Comments 2.2K 10 Jump to Recipe Grilled Lemon Chicken made with a mayo, lemon juice, garlic, and oregano marinade and then grilled to perfection. This is THE BEST marinade! I’m not sure there’s anything easier to do in the summer than grill chicken. But I have to say, this recipe does take about 5 extra minutes of thought to prepare the marinade. Believe me, I know those 5 extra minutes are dicey when the kids are constantly asking you for popsicles, juice, to put their bathing suit on, to take their bathing suit off, to yell at their brother for being mean, to wipe off their hands for the billionth time… you get the idea! Sometimes my mind is spinning so fast, all of a sudden my stomach is growling and I realize I haven’t eaten anything – here comes Mommy in a BAD mood! Seriously though, dedicate those precious 5 minutes to stirring together this AMAZING marinade. This would be a great one to freeze along with the chicken, it will marinade in the fridge as it thaws. It’s creamy, tangy, and SO good! Oh man, this chicken was SO good! I served it with Garlic Butter Grilled Mushrooms on skewers, be sure to check back tomorrow for that amazing recipe!
