Grill the Chicken
Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Once hot, place the marinated chicken on the grill and cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). Remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
