You don’t have to. You can eat dry, bland chicken and pretend it’s fine. But why would you? Life’s too short for boring protein. Marinating is the lowest-effort upgrade you can make to your dinner game. It transforms “I’ll just eat this so I’m not hungry” into “Wow, I actually want to cook this again.”
So next time you’re standing in your kitchen, staring at that raw chicken, just remember: Marinate, then dominate. Your future self—and your dinner guests—will thank you. Now go make something delicious. I believe in you. 🍗
