Citrus Marinated Chicken delivers a refreshing, tangy twist on grilled chicken. Orange, lemon, and lime juices blend with garlic, olive oil, and seasoning to tenderize and flavor the chicken breasts. Marinate for up to 24 hours, then grill for a juicy, aromatic main dish ideal for summer dinners or casual gatherings.
