Expert Tips
- Allow chicken to marinate at least 30 minutes and up to 1 day in advance for best flavor. Discard marinate after use.
- Use dried herbs and seasonings that are in date. Herbs with expired dates will be less flavorful.
- If available, a heavy iron skillet will easily produce a brown crunchy crust.
