Grilled Lemon Greek Chicken

I made this last week along with the roasted lemon potatoes. It was very flavorful. The great thing about this marinade is that it only needs to marinate for one hour, which is great because I am notorious for deciding what's for dinner in the afternoon and I can't exactly get a 6 hour marinade recipe going that fast. It is worth noting that if you're using a citrus or acidic ingredient in your marinade,  you shouldn't marinate it for longer than an hour. Those ingredients are harsh and begin to break down the meat if you leave it on for too long. So remember, no longer than an hour. You could top this chicken with feta cheese or eat it as is. My husband added some feta, and I ate it as is. Either way, I think you'll enjoy it!

1/4 cup red wine vinegar

1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground black pepper

Directions:
