1
Marinate the Chicken
In a large bowl, whisk together the olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper to create the marinade.
2
Coat the Chicken
Add the chicken quarters to the marinade bowl, ensuring they are well-coated. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or overnight for best flavor.

3
Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
4
Arrange Chicken on Baking Sheet
Remove the chicken from the marinade and place it skin-side up on a baking sheet lined with aluminum foil for easy cleanup.
5
Bake the Chicken
Bake the chicken in the preheated oven for 35-45 minutes, or until the skin is crispy and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).
6
Rest and Garnish
Once cooked, remove the chicken from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes. Garnish with chopped parsley and serve with lemon wedges.
