- 1 tablespoon fresh marjoram or oregano leaves or 1 teaspoon dried oregano

- When youre ready to cookif you choose not to marinate the meatstart a charcoal or wood fire or preheat a gas grill; the fire should be moderately hot and the rack about 4 inches from the heat source.
- Mince one of the onions and combine it in a large bowl with the oil, lemon juice, garlic, salt, pepper, bay leaves, and marjoram; taste and adjust the seasoning.
- Marinate the chicken in this mixture for at least a few minutes or for up to 12 hours in the refrigerator.
- If youre using wooden skewers, soak them in water to cover for a few minutes.
- Cut the remaining onion into quarters, then separate it into large pieces.
- Thread the chicken and onion alternately onto the skewers, leaving a little space between pieces.
- Grill, turning as each side browns and brushing with the remaining marinade, for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through.
- Serve with the lemon wedges or sprinkle with a bit of sumac.
