Step 1
1. Add horizontal cuts to the meat so that the marinate can penetrate (makes the meat flavorful)
2. In a prep bowl mix all the above mentioned ingredients to form a marinade
3. Rub the marinade generously on the chicken pieces and set it aside in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours (min) - max overnight
4. Take the chicken out 15 minutes prior to cooking and let it come to slight room temperature
6. The chicken then can be grilled, cooked on the stove or baked in the oven
Grilling:
💫Grill the chicken till the chicken is charred, brush it with olive oil every time you turn it over. This keeps the chicken moist and juices. This will take about 20-25 minutes
Bake In The Oven:
💫Preheat your oven to 300 degrees
💫place the marinated chicken in a baking dish and cover with foil
💫after about 30 minutes take out the chicken, remove the water and marinate extract. Change the oven setting to broil, and place the chicken back in the oven. Broil for 5 minutes for each side. This will give it a nice charred look
Stove Cook:
💫Add two table spoons of oil to the heated pan
💫place the chicken on the heated pan let it cook each side for 3-4 minutes on high heat. This will give you a nice charred look
💫Cover the pan and let the chicken cook on medium low heat for about 6-8 minutes each side and flip.
