Step:

  1. Lightly tenderize chicken using the flat head of a meat mallet. Cut slits into each chicken breast about 1/2 inch apart and only cutting half way through the breasts. This will help the marinade sink in and cook quicker on the grill.

  2. Combine the remaining ingredients in a large plastic bag along with chicken. Marinate for 10-30 minutes.

  3. Heat grill to medium-high heat. Spray with grill approved cooking spray and place chicken directly over heat. Cook for 5-7 minutes on each side, or until done. Since the sizes of chicken varies greatly, so will the cooking times.

  4. Remove and allow to rest for 5 minutes before serving.
