Master Recipe For Poultry Marinade

   100ml                olive oil
   4      cloves        garlic, peeled and lightly crushed
   1      tablespoon    minced fresh rosemary or thyme
   50ml                 lemon juice
                        black pepper, freshly ground

Heat olive oil in a small saucepan.  Add garlic and rosemary and let cook over low heat for 5 minutes.  Remove from heat and let steep for 10 minutes.  Strain oil through a sieve.  Add lemon juice and pepper and stir to mix.
Makes enough marinade for 1 chicken. Marinate 3-4 hours.

This is similar to the beef marinade but uses lemon juice instead of balsamic vinegar. Chicken is more delicate, so I use less
garlic and rosemary.
