4. Marinate for at least 4 hours and up to 24 hours.

To grill

1. Preheat grill to medium high heat and lightly oil the grates.

3. Grill chicken for 5 to 6 minutes on each side or until cooked through.
4. Baste the chicken occasionally with the reserved marinade.
5. Remove chicken from grill and tent with foil. Let chicken rest for at least 5 minutes before serving
