Tips

1. Marinating the chicken enhances the flavour and tenderizes the chicken. Don't skip this step.

2. While cooking the chicken, ensure you don't overcook the chicken. To check if the chicken is done, make a tiny cut and press your knife against the cut; the fluids should be transparent. Or insert a thermometer in the middle, which should read 165° F.
