Tips:

Use buttermilk or yogurt: Buttermilk or yogurt adds a tangy flavor and helps tenderize the chicken.
Don't overcook the chicken: Overcooked chicken will be dry and tough. Cook it until it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
Use fresh herbs and spices: Fresh herbs and spices add a lot of flavor to the chicken. Use a variety of herbs and spices to create a unique flavor profile.
Let the chicken marinate for at least 30 minutes: This will allow the flavors to penetrate the chicken.
Cook the chicken over medium heat: Medium heat will help the chicken cook evenly and prevent it from burning.
Use a meat thermometer to ensure that the chicken is cooked through: The chicken should reach an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
