Marinate the Chicken
Place the chicken breasts in a large resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the chicken, ensuring each piece is well coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, preferably overnight for more flavor.
Cooking the Chicken

Preheat the Grill
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 375°F to 400°F or 190°C to 200°C).

Grill the Chicken
Remove the chicken from the marinade, allowing excess marinade to drip off. Grill the chicken for 6-7 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) and the chicken is nicely charred.

Rest the Chicken
Once cooked, remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing. This helps to keep the juices in.
