Marinate the Chicken
Place the chicken breasts in a resealable plastic bag or 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 maximum flavor.
Cooking

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

Grill the Chicken
Remove the chicken from the marinade, allowing excess to drip off. Discard the remaining marinade. Place the chicken on the grill and cook 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, transfer the grilled chicken to a plate and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing. This helps retain the juices.
