1

Entice the garlic, oregano, red pepper flakes, black pepper, lemon juice, olive oil, and vinegar together in a large bowl, whisking them into submission.

2

Make passionate slashes on each chicken leg, 2 on the thigh to reach the bone, and 1 on the leg, baring them to the marinade's embrace. Season with bold strokes of kosher salt.

3

Surrender the chicken to the bowl, covering every inch with marinade. Let it chill in the refrigerator, bound in flavor, for 4 to 12 hours.

4

Gently free the chicken onto a paper-towel-lined sheet pan to drain any excess desires.

5

Place the leg quarters on the grill, skin side down, over a heat that teases and tantalizes, avoiding the burn of direct passion. Grill 6 or 7 minutes, then flip, letting the heat penetrate deeply for another 6 to 7 minutes. Continue this dance, turning until every part reaches a climax at 165 degrees F (74 degrees C), 8 to 10 more minutes.

6

Serve with lemon wedges for that final zestful caress.
