Although it may take over an hour to bake, this recipe is one of quick preparation. In fact, one can prepare this recipe the night before, cover and refrigerate until cooking the next day. I can remember coming home from school and finding a note my mother left, explaining that at such and such a time I was to turn on the oven and place the chicken oregano in for cooking. When she arrived home, the chicken was almost done!
