This recipe was a bit too bland for my taste. I would have liked the marinade to have more flavor.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my chicken turned out dry and bland. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what happened.

I was skeptical about the marinade at first, but it turned out to be perfect. The chicken was moist and flavorful, and the lemon and oregano really shone through.
