For an extra layer of flavor, add a clove of minced garlic or a pinch of smoked paprika to the marinade. Serve the Picante Marinated Chicken with a side of fluffy rice, quinoa, or roasted vegetables for a complete and satisfying meal. Marinating the chicken for longer than 30 minutes will result in a more intense flavor. Be sure to cook the reserved marinade thoroughly to eliminate any potential bacteria from the raw chicken.

Jul 30, 2024The chicken was a bit dry when I made it. Next time, I'll try marinating it for longer and being careful not to overcook it in the skillet.
