The flavor of this baked chicken will depend on how long you marinate it. Refrigerate it for at least 2 hours, preferably longer, and you'll have juicy meat with a rich, spicy flavor, coated with a wonderfully crisp garlic crust. Use a whole head of garlic for the marinade. Crush the cloves and mix with white wine vinegar, olive oil, chili pepper, and fresh oregano. The aroma will linger while roasting. Don't discard the juices; use them as a dipping sauce for your bread. It'll be delicious.
