Instructions

1
In a large bowl, combine apple cider vinegar, vegetable oil, mayonnaise, paprika, garlic powder, poultry seasoning, sea salt, and ground black pepper.
2
Whisk the marinade ingredients together until well combined and emulsified.
3
Using a fork, pierce the chicken pieces all over. This helps the marinade penetrate the meat.
4
Place the chicken in large resealable bags and pour the marinade over them, ensuring all pieces are coated.
5
Seal the bags and refrigerate for at least 24 hours.
6
Grill the chicken over medium heat until cooked through and the skin is golden and crispy. The internal temperature should reach 165°F (74°C).
