Marinate the Chicken
Place the chicken breast in a resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the chicken, making sure it is evenly coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours for better flavor.

Grill the Chicken
Remove the chicken breast from the marinade and let any excess marinade drip off. Place the chicken on the preheated grill. Grill for approximately 6-7 minutes on one side without moving it, then flip and grill for another 6-7 minutes on the other side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).

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