Only one for today. With no further ado, we bring you:

Chicken Marinade I

Ingredients:
olive oil
balsamic vinegar
basil
oregano
thyme
dill
lemon zest
salt
pepper
sugar

Mix everything together in a small bowl.  Put your chicken pieces in a Ziploc bag, ideally large enough that you can lay it flat with the chicken only one layer deep.  Pour in your marinade and close it up, getting as much air out as you can.  Marinate in the refrigerator for about an hour and a half, flipping it over about halfway.  Then dump the marinade and broil or grill the fowl (I broiled it because it started POURING rain that afternoon) for about 25 minutes, flipping every few minutes.  Eat it with rice unless you don't like rice.  In which case, you're on your own.

But...but...but...how much of each? I mean, a gallon on lemon zest and a drop of olive oil probably wouldn't do the trick. Right?

Freestyle Chefery is not for the faint of heart. My recipes are always, shall we say, "skeletal," and require fleshing out to be performed by the actual cook of the hour. My favorite cookery term is "season to taste." Also, I forgot to include the main ingredient: common sense (a generous helping is always useful).

This chicken was super-tasty. I just hope Jonathan can reproduce it. No estimates on the amounts of spices?
