Greek Grilled Chicken

This delicious chicken gets its flavor from the marinade. Olive oil, Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce, Dijon mustard, garlic cloves, thyme, rosemary, salt, ground pepper and lemon juice are whisked together in a bowl. A quarter of the marinade is set aside. Then chicken is marinated in the remaining marinade for several hours. While grilling the chicken is brushed with the reserved marinade.
