Notes
- Storage: Store any leftovers in an airtight container. They will last about 3-4 days in the fridge.
- Equipment: If you want to make these on a grill pan, I highly recommend the Anolon grill pan that I use (affiliate link).
- Make Ahead: You can make the marinade about 3 days in advance and you can marinate the chicken in the marinade for up to 24 hours in advance.
