1. Gather all marinade ingredients and whisk together in a mixing bowl until well combined.

4. Remove the chicken from the marinade, shaking off excess, and place on the hot grill. Cook for approximately 6-8 minutes per side, or until the chicken is cooked through with internal temperature reaching 165°F (75°C) and visible char marks.
