Grill the Chicken
Remove the chicken from the marinade and shake off any excess. Grill the chicken for about 6-8 minutes on each side, or until the chicken is cooked through and has nice char marks. Use a meat thermometer to ensure the internal temperature reaches 75°C (165°F).

Serve
Once cooked, remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes before serving. Serve with naan, rice, and your choice of sauces.
