Steps:
- To attain maximum heat, preheat broiler for at least 15 minutes before using. -- Make the Lemon Sauce: Whisk together juice, oil, vinegar, garlic, oregano, and salt and pepper. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use. Whisk or shake vigorously before using. -- Broil chicken halves, turning once, for about 30 minutes or until skin is golden-brown and juices run clear when bird is pierced with a fork. -- Remove chicken from broiler, leaving broiler on. Using a very sharp knife, cut each half into about 6 pieces (leg, thigh, wing, 3 small breast pieces). -- Place chicken on a baking sheet with sides, of a size that can fit into the broiler. Pour Lemon Sauce over the chicken and toss to coat well. If necessary, divide sauce in half and do this in two batches. -- Return to broiler and broil for 3 minutes. Turn each piece and broil for an additional minute. -- Remove from broiler and portion each chicken onto each of 6 warm serving plates. -- 888888 -- Pour sauce into a heavy saucepan.
