Used ziplock to marinade, subbed 1/4 c coconut oil for 1/2 c canola, used boneless thighs instead of breast (on low-carb diet). Added nice flavor to chicken. Will add garlic next time. non-dieting hubby loved it.

I forgot to put in 1/2 cup lemon juice as one of the ingredients. I couldn't see any way to edit it, so added it here!
