User Comments:
- "This chicken is amazing! The orange and soy sauce marinade gives it a delicious flavor."
- "I've tried several different recipes for grilled chicken, but this one is by far the best. It's so easy to make and always turns out perfect."

Special Precautions and Tips:
- If you don't have time to marinate the chicken, you can brush it with the marinade and grill it immediately.
- Use fresh orange juice for the best flavor.
- Don't overcrowd the grill or grill pan. This will prevent the chicken from cooking evenly.
- Let the chicken rest before slicing and serving. This will allow the juices to redistribute, making the chicken more tender and flavorful.
