Chicken Preparation
- 2
Marinate the Chicken
Place the chicken breasts in a large resealable plastic bag or shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the chicken, making sure each piece is well coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or up to overnight for more flavor.

Preheat the Grill
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 375°F to 450°F).

Grill the Chicken
Remove the chicken from the marinade and discard the marinade. Place the chicken breasts on the grill and cook for 6-7 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F and the chicken has nice grill marks.

Let Rest
Once cooked, remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing. This will help the juices redistribute and keep the chicken moist.
