Instructions
- In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, vinegar, Dijon, honey and 1 tablespoon water; season with salt and pepper, to taste; set aside.
- In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, 2 tablespoons olive oil, rosemary and garlic; season with salt and pepper, to taste.
- In a gallon size Ziploc bag or large bowl, combine chicken and soy sauce mixture; marinate for at least 2 hours to 6 hours, turning the bag occasionally. Drain the chicken from the marinade.
