  4. Remove chicken from marinade and shake off excess. Discard remaining marinade.

  5. Place chicken and peppers (cut-side down) on the preheated grill. Cook, turning occasionally until chicken is no longer pink in center, juices run clear, and peppers have nice grill marks on them, about 15 minutes.
