How to Make Marinated Chicken Breasts

Add 1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts to the bag.
Seal the bag, pressing out excess air, and gently turn to fully coat the chicken.
Refrigerate overnight (at least 8 hours).
Remove chicken from bag; discard marinade.
Preheat grill to medium heat. Grill chicken for 6-7 minutes per side, or until a meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part registers 165°F (74°C). Juices should run clear.
Let rest for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
