  • In a bowl, mix all the marinade ingredients until well combined. Add the chicken and coat it evenly in the marinade. Cover and marinate for at least 2 hours, or 6–8 hours for deeper flavor. Cook over high heat until nicely charred and fully cooked through.
  • Pat the chicken dry before cooking to help create a better sear and charred finish. For the best texture, avoid marinating chicken in citrus for longer than 12 hours.
