- 1 tablespoon of Mont Rouge Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Instructions

- When roasting, frying, or grilling, pour all of the marinade over the chicken.
Spicy Chicken Marinade Recipe Note: When grilling your chicken, it is important to not move the chicken once it’s been placed on the grill for at least 5-7 minutes. This will give the chicken time to sear and seal.
When lifting or flipping the chicken too soon, pieces of meat will stick to the grill causing them to break off. It is best to always wait 7 minutes before turning the chicken over so it can be allowed to cook thoroughly.
