Tips:

Choose the right chicken: Use boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs for best results.
Make sure the chicken is evenly coated in the marinade: Use a large bowl or resealable plastic bag to marinate the chicken, making sure that all of the chicken is coated in the marinade.
Let the chicken marinate for at least 30 minutes, but no longer than 24 hours: Marinating the chicken for too long can make it tough.
Cook the chicken over medium heat: This will help to prevent the chicken from drying out.
Baste the chicken with the marinade while it is cooking: This will help to keep the chicken moist and flavorful.
Serve the chicken with your favorite sides: Rice, noodles, or vegetables are all great options.
