1 1/2 teaspoons garlic, minced
1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary, crushed, crumbled
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon coarsely ground black pepper
1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts
2 red potatoes, quartered lengthwise and cooked
2 red onions, cut into 6 wedges

1 sweet red pepper, cut into 2-inch (5 cm) strips Preparation In a 9 x 13-inch (3-L) glass baking dish, combine the vinegar, oil, garlic, rosemary, oregano and pepper. Add the chicken, turning to coat with the marinade. Cover the chicken and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. Add the potatoes, onion wedges and pepper strips to the marinade.
