Chicken Marinade Recipe with Triple Citrus

Every summer it's all about those chicken marinades right? Because who likes bland and boring chicken without some extra flavor?

This marinade is incredibly easy to make! Don't be intimated by that list of ingredients, you can see in the ingredients photo below it's actually not much and you probably have a lot of what you'll need already.
