These chicken breasts turn out juicy and aromatic every time, thanks to a flavorful marinade. Halve the recipe for smaller crowds or, since the flavors of this dish are so versatile, make the whole batch and turn any leftovers you may have into sandwiches, burritos, or enchiladas. Before grilling, pat the chicken breasts dry to prevent the marinade from burning or causing any flare-ups on the grill. You can vary the herbs as you like.
