Instructions

  1. 1 Combine lime juice, olive oil, garlic, salt, and oregano in a large resealable plastic bag. Seal the bag and shake until well combined. Taste marinade for tartness: if too tart, add a little more oil; if not enough zing, add more lime juice. The garlic and salt flavors should also be noticeable, but not overpowering. Place tenderloins into the bag, seal, and turn to coat. Marinate in the refrigerator for 2 to 5 hours.
  2. 2 Remove tenderloins from marinade and shake off excess. Discard remaining marinade.
  3. 3 Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate.
  4. 4 Grill tenderloins on the preheated grill for 20 to 30 minutes, turning once, or to desired doneness. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).

  1. 1 Whisk garlic, oregano, red pepper flakes, black pepper, lemon juice, olive oil, and vinegar together in a large bowl.
  2. 2 Make 2 slashes on the skin side down to the bone in the thigh section and 1 in the leg section of each leg quarter. This will help infuse pieces with marinade and allow faster cooking on the grill. Season both sides of chicken generously with kosher salt. Transfer to bowl with marinade and thoroughly coat all sides. Cover and marinate in refrigerator 4 to 12 hours.
  3. 3 Transfer chicken to paper-towel-lined sheet pan to drain slightly.
  4. 4 Place leg quarters on grill skin side down over semi-direct heat (avoid intense direct heat so chicken cooks evenly and skin doesn't burn). Cook 6 or 7 minutes. Turn chicken and cook another 6 to 7 minutes. Continue cooking and turning until internal temperature reaches 165 degrees F (74 degrees C), 8 to 10 more minutes. Serve with lemon wedges.
