Lemon marinade for chicken

I have got this recipe on lemon marinade from my cousin, where you off cause use several Tupperware products for both the marination process and the cooking part :-)

The lemon marinade can be used for white fish, poultry and seafood. I have so fare only used this marinade for chicken breast. I usually marinade a few extra chicken breasts, which I freeze down for later use.

Lemon marinade: - one portion can marinade 500 g fish/poultry

• 2 dl freshly squeezed lemon juice
• 1 dl olive oil
• 3 shallots - medium chopped
• 3 cloves of garlic- medium-fine chopped
• chopped fresh herbs, I used rosemary. Other options are mint, tarragon, coriander or oregano
• salt and pepper

1. Add all the ingredients in a medium bowl.Stir everything together.
2. Place the chicken breasts in a container with lid and pour the marinade.
3. Turn the container up-side down every 2-4 hours.
4. Marinade for minimum 4 hours and up to 8 hours.
5. Cook the chicken breasts in the marinade in a baking tray with lid to keep the chicken breasts juicy at 200-220'C for 20 minutes. Another option is wrap the chicken breasts in alu folio and cook these packs on the grill for 20 minutes.
