For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a pinch of red pepper flakes to the marinade for a subtle kick. If you don't have a grill, these chicken breasts can also be cooked in a skillet on the stovetop or baked in the oven at 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) until cooked through. Serve these marinated chicken breasts with your favorite sides, such as rice, roasted vegetables, or a fresh salad.
