Brine the chicken in saltwater for 30 minutes before marinating for juicier results.
Slice the chicken thinly after grilling for even mixing in pasta dishes.
Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to three days or freeze for up to three months. Thaw overnight in the fridge before reheating.
