Notes

  • Clearly mark the chicken so it can absorb the marination.
  • Tap to dry the chicken before marination.
  • Marinate for longer hours (4 to 6 hours recommended) can make the chicken more juicy and tender in flavor.
  • In baking dish, don't forget to layer with oil otherwise the chicken will stick.
  • Make sure to add oil or butter in marination so it will make the chicken more juicy and tender also it will not dry up right after baking.
