Ainekset

2 tbsp white wine vinegar (or red wine or apple cider vinegar)

1/2 cup / 125 ml lemon juice

Ohjeet

Mix Marinade ingredients in a large bowl.

Add chicken and coat well. Marinade for 24 hours (3 hours minimum).

Preheat oven to 180C.350F.

Line a tray with foil (trust me), place rack on tray (optional).

Place chicken on rack (reserve marinade), skin side up. Bake 30 minutes,

Remove from oven. Brush with marinade - do not flip.

Return to oven for 20 minutes or until golden and a bit crispy. Give it a spray of olive oil just before it's done if you want an extra crispy, shiny coat.

Rest for a few minutes before serving. Juicy and tasty enough to serve plain but extra great with tzatziki or even some plain yogurt.
