Cook the Chicken and Beef
In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add a little olive oil. Remove the chicken and beef from the marinade and place them in the skillet. Cook the chicken for about 6-7 minutes on each side or until fully cooked and no longer pink. If using beef, cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side or to desired doneness. Remove from skillet and let rest before slicing.
