Make sure to marinate the chicken for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to penetrate the meat.
If grilling, oil the grill grates or use a grill pan to prevent the chicken from sticking.
For extra flavor, brush the chicken with the marinade while grilling or baking.
If you prefer a thicker glaze, you can simmer the remaining marinade in a saucepan until it thickens.
