  • 2 cloves of garlic, grated
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice

Preparation steps

  • For the marinade, combine all ingredients in a freezer bag and add chicken to coat well. Marinate, ideally overnight, or at least for 4 hours to allow all flavours to develop (you can then freeze the chicken if desired).
