Notes
We marinated our chicken for about 6 hours. If you don't have hours, even 30 minutes can make a big difference when marinating meat.
We cooked our chicken on the outdoor grill, but this marinade would work well for baked, slow cooked, or pressure cooked chicken.
This recipe was enough to cover 4 large chicken breasts that were cut in half. Adjust ingredients as necessary for the amount of chicken you will be cooking.
