Instructions

  1. Prepare the marinade according to the recipe instructions.
  2. Place one chicken breast inside a large plastic zip-top bag.
  3. Use the flat side of a meat mallet or a rolling pin and pound until the meat is 1/2-inch thick. Repeat with remaining chicken breasts.
  4. Place the chicken pieces into a large zip-top plastic bag. Pour the marinade into the bag, covering the chicken completely.
  5. Place in the refrigerator and marinate for 2-3 hours, turning occasionally to make sure all areas of the chicken are marinated.
  6. Preheat the grill. When the grill is hot, brush and oil the grill.
  7. Remove the chicken from marinade and place on the hot grill. Brush with the marinade from the container then discard the marinade.
  8. Move the chicken out of the flame if there is a flare up at any time!
  9. Cook, watching carefully for flare-ups, until the meat has reached 165°F.
  10. Remove and let sit for 5 minutes, then serve. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired.
