The original recipe for this was for pan fried chicken... well, you know me, I long for the grill, so I thought I would adapt this to work on my favorite cooking device. Now I'm not sure why it's called chicken Athena, though. Athena, to me, is Greek, and these are definitely not Greek flavors, but it's what the original recipe called it, so I'm sticking with it.
On the downside.. for the first time in a very long time, I forgot to write down the exact amounts of the ingredients I used in the sauce. WHAT?? I know, right? All I remember is I used mayo, Dijon, lemon juice and Worcestershire... same ingredients I used to marinate the chicken with... I just can't remember the quantities!! Soooooo.. unfortunately, this time, you are all on your own... I gave you the tools, you'll just have to build the house yourself... sorry!!!! :)

Sounds like a good chicken marinade Jenn.
ReplyDeleteHow nice is that!!! I haven't broiled chicken in a while and it would be perfect for this, given that your truly doesn't own a grill.

The chicken looks so tender and succulent.
ReplyDeleteWorchestershire, Lemon and mustard = yum.
ReplyDeleteI agree, it doesn't scream Greek to me either, but it does sound good. Maybe throw some sun dried tomatoes and feta in there at the end?
ReplyDeleteOh yeah, oregano too.
