  • Pour the marinade over the chicken and steak and make sure all of the meat is well covered. Cover with plastic wrap and marinate for a couple hours or overnight. 
  • Cooking the meat on a grill will give you the best taste. However bakes in the oven is fine too. For the chicken - cook on each side for 5-7 minutes. The steak will take a little longer depending on the thickness and how you like your steak prepared. 
  • When the meat is cooked removed from the grill and cover with tin foil. Let it sit for at least 10 minutes before slicing.
