Cooking Tips

For extra flavor, you can add some chopped fresh herbs, such as oregano or thyme, to the marinade.
If you don't have a grill, you can also cook the chicken in a skillet or bake it in the oven.
Make sure to let the chicken rest before serving to allow the juices to redistribute and keep it moist.

Storage and Serving

Leftover chicken can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
To reheat, place the chicken in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 10-15 minutes, or until heated through.
Serve the Chicken Athena with a side of Greek salad, roasted vegetables, or pita bread for a complete meal.
