  • Marinate the chicken overnight. This will help the chicken to absorb the flavors of the marinade and make it more tender.
  • Cook the chicken over medium heat. This will help to prevent the chicken from drying out.
  • Baste the chicken frequently with the marinade. This will help to keep the chicken moist and flavorful.
  • Let the chicken rest before serving. This will help the juices to redistribute throughout the chicken, making it more tender and flavorful.
