Chef's note
This recipe suggests seasoning the chicken as you cook, but for extra flavor, you can marinate it too. Just mix the chicken with some oil and Italian seasoning, and then put it in a covered container in the fridge until you're ready to cook. Letting it sit for 30 minutes to an hour should do the job. Feel free to add more spices to taste. If you want a little kick, you can throw in some red chili flakes or black pepper powder.
