2 Garlic Cloves

1 Tbsp of Five-Spice Powder

1 tsp of Allspice

1 tsp of Dried Thyme

INSTRUCTIONS

1. To make the marinade, combine all ingredients except for the chicken in a food processor or blender. Blend until everything is mostly smooth (it will resemble a course and gritty paste).

2. Place chicken pieces in a gallon-sized resealable bag and pour the marinade over the chicken. Seal the bag tightly and then knead the bag to cover chicken completely.

3. Let chicken marinate for 6-8 hours in the fridge.

4. Remove chicken from fridge, preheat griddle to medium-high heat, and cover with a thin coat of olive oil.

5. Place chicken on griddle and cook for approximately 8-10 minutes (until internal temperature reaches 165 degrees), turning chicken every two minutes.
