1/2 c Olive or vegetable oil
1/2 c Dry white wine
2 Cloves garlic, crushed
1 ts Fresh Italian parsley,
-chopped
1 ts Dried leaf oregano, crumbled

Mix oil, wine, garlic, parsley, oregano, salt and pepper (to taste).
Marinate chicken in a shallow pan, covered, for several hours or overnight.
Remove chicken and reserve marinade. Place breasts, skin- side up in 1 or
2 roasting pans; do not crowd. Brush with part of reserved marinade. Bake
in 375 F oven, basting occasionally with marinade, for 40 minutes until
skin is crisp. Sprinkle part of Parmesan over the chicken and return to
oven just until Parmesan begins to turn golden. Line a warm platter with
steamed spinach leaves, then with rice. Arrange chicken breasts on top and
sprinkle with remaining Parmesan cheese. Garnish with red pepper strips.
(NOTE: Chicken breasts can be grilled about 4 inches from coals for 20
minutes, turning and basting with marinade until chicken is golden.)
