Grilled Greek Lemon Oregano Chicken Wings image

I adapted an old recipe for whole grilled chickens into a wing version for tailgating parties. You can marinade the chicken pieces ahead of time and transport to cooking site.

I'm not a huge fan of chicken wings, but these were really good. The lemon-oregano marinade was really flavorful.

These wings were a little too spicy for my taste, but my husband loved them. I think next time I'll use less chili powder in the marinade.

I followed the recipe exactly and the wings came out dry and overcooked. I think I'll try grilling them for less time next time.

These wings were a little too lemony for my taste, but my husband loved them. I think next time I'll use less lemon juice in the marinade.
