Marinate Chicken
Place the chicken breasts in a large zip-top 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, or up to overnight for maximum flavor.

Grill Chicken
Remove the chicken from the marinade and discard the leftover marinade. Place the chicken breasts on the grill. Grill for 6-7 minutes on one side without moving them, then flip and grill for an additional 6-7 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).

Rest and Serve
Once cooked, transfer the chicken to a plate and let it rest for 5 minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute. Slice and serve as desired.
