4. Refrigerate for 2 hours or overnight.

5. Preheat the grill to medium-high heat and lightly oil the grates.

6. Remove the chicken from the marinade and grill for 8 to 10 minutes, creating a crosshatch on both sides, or until cooked through.

7. Baste the chicken with the remaining marinade while grilling.

Jalapeño Hot Sauce:

1. Using a food processor or a mortar and pestle, process or pound the jalapeños and garlic to a rough pulp.
