TRICKY BITS

How long to marinate? : The longer you marinate the chicken, the better. I find it's easiest to do it right before work. It should only take 10 minutes to put the whole thing together. One time I only marinated the chicken for 20 minutes, and it just wasn't the same. The longer, the better
