  2. Add the chicken (or your protein of choice), ensuring it's fully coated in the marinade.
  3. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 4 hours for maximum flavor.
  4. Preheat your grill, broiler, or skillet to medium-high heat.
  5. Grill, broil, or pan-fry the marinated chicken for 5-7 minutes per side, or until cooked through and slightly charred.
  6. Serve immediately and enjoy the incredible flavor!
