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 30 minutes, preferably 2-4 hours for maximum flavor.

Cook the Chicken
Preheat your grill or oven to medium-high heat. Remove the chicken from the marinade, allowing excess marinade to drip off. Grill the chicken for about 6-7 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). If baking, place the chicken on a baking sheet and bake for 25-30 minutes.
