    1. More oil can be added based on the consistency that you prefer 

  5. Marinade the chicken from an hour to over night for the most flavor

  6. Lay chicken on a baking sheet or hot grille.

  7. Cook at 375 degrees for 20-25 minutes, until chicken is done. (TIP- When you poke into the meatiest part of your chicken and clear juices come out, then you are seconds away from it being done.)
