JOEM'S BAKED ITALIAN CHICKEN 
Most types of chicken will work for this dish. If using a whole chicken, cut it up first!

2-3 lb. chicken breasts (I use boneless/skinless)
aluminum foil

MARINADE:

1/3 (16 oz.) bottle Italian salad dressing (I use fat-free)
4 large oranges, juiced
2 medium lemons, juiced
thyme
basil
oregano
salt and pepper

Preheat oven to 400°F.

Prepare marinade by mixing Italian dressing and freshly squeezed juices. Then if you have them put in thyme, basil and oregano. Season with a lot of pepper and a tiny pinch of salt. Mix well.

Dip chicken pieces in marinade then separately wrap each piece in foil. Place in baking dish and bake at 400°F for 1 hour.

Variation: Place marinated chicken in dish and pour remaining marinade over all. Cover entire dish with foil.
