lemon juice -Tenderizing chicken is easy with acid, and citrus always works. Freshly squeezed lemon or lime juice gives your meat a kick, ideal for grilling season or Tex-Mex cuisine.
garlic -Garlic has a unique spicy flavor that is great for seasoning dishes. The aroma of garlic goes well with the flavor of chicken.
Red pepper flakes – I added chili flakes to this recipe for some heat. You can add more or less according to your taste.

Coriander leaves—— Cilantro, along with garlic, adds subtle flavor to your dishes.
