Italian Marinated Barbecued Chicken image

Chicken barbecued using this marinade is d-lish! I needed a marinade for barbecued chicken but was totally out of my quick fix marinade--Italian dressing--so I threw this together. The flavor reminds me of mouth-watering, slow-barbecued firehall/church fundraiser barbecued chicken. I used 12 medium-sized drumsticks (2 per person to serve six), but you could use any chicken pieces you prefer. Please note preparation time does not include time to marinate.

Time 35m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

12 chicken drumsticks (medium-sized)
1 cup red wine vinegar
1 1/3 cups vegetable oil
1 teaspoon dried basil
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon dried rosemary (crushed in the palm of your hand)
1/2 teaspoon poultry seasoning
2 teaspoons garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon dried sage (I used rubbed sage)
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 egg, beaten

Steps:

  • In a medium mixing bowl, combine all ingredients (except chicken) and whisk thoroughly.
  • In a wide, shallow re-sealable dish, arrange chicken pieces in one layer (Note: A gallon-sized baggie could be used instead).
  • Pour marinade over chicken pieces and cover dish.
  • Marinate refrigerated for 2-24 hours, occasionally turning chicken pieces for full coverage.
  • Preheat grill to medium-high heat.
  • Grill chicken for 20-30 minutes, turning and basting with marinade every five minutes, until cooked through. Chicken is cooked through when a fork pierced through the thickest part releases clear juice, or the internal temperature reaches 170°F.
  • Serve and enjoy!
