3 Citrus Marinade is an amazing blend of herbs, spices, and citrus fruits! This grilled chicken recipe makes tender, juicy chicken with so much flavor! This will soon become a family favorite!

This is such an easy dinner idea and it can go from your fridge to your table in about 30 minutes.  Who doesn’t love a 30 minute meal and a grilled one to boot!

This is such an easy and delicious citrus chicken marinade recipe.  You can throw these ingredients together a day or two before you need to grill and they’ll be ready to go. (You can even put it in a ziplock bag to make cleanup even easier)  I recommend up to 24 hours on this marinade but I didn’t get it grilled by 24 hours and it was even more delicious after 48! The chicken was so tender and juicy.

That’s what I love about this chicken marinade, it’s so forgiving and still delicious!  You can easily just do two or even one of the citrus fruits and it’ll be delicious.  We love this as a grilled lemon chicken recipe too!

Tips for Making 3 Citrus Chicken Marinade:

• This recipe works best if it’s grilled.
• You can throw all the ingredients in a ziplock bag to make the cleanup even easier.
• You can marinade the chicken 12-48 hours.
• Use on salads, sandwiches, or with your favorite sides.
