The pickled lemon sage love ...

The bright flavors of lemon, garlic, sage and turn the chicken in this quick and simple marinade bland. I love chicken bones as the bone adds flavor and keeps the skin moisture. You can substitute boneless chicken breast, but reduce the cooking time of 25 to 30 minutes, depending on thickness. Plan ahead, marinate at least 6 hours before grilling or baking.
