This is my mother-in-law's recipe and was labeled "Donna's favorite". I'm posting it here for posterity and haven't tried it yet. It looks easy and delicious! Prep time includes marinading.

Lemon, garlic and oregano are a classic Greek flavor combination. I doubled the lemon juice because it didn't look like enough liquid. I didn't have a grill, so I used a cast-iron grill pan in a 350F oven. It wasn't hot enough, so the chicken didn't brown; next time it needs a 450F oven and a longer preheat for the cast iron. Also, next time, I would probably add some grated lemon zest to the marinade for that extra lemon punch. Made for Pick-A-Chef Fall 2009.
