Step 1 - In a large bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, olive oil, lemon juice, soy sauce, brown sugar, smoked paprika, cayenne pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, ginger, black pepper, and salt.

Step 2 - Add the chicken pieces to the marinade, ensuring they are well coated. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or ideally, overnight for maximum flavour.

Step 3 - Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Alternatively, preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F) for baking or heat a large skillet with a drizzle of oil over medium heat for pan-frying.

Step 4 - Once the grill is hot, remove the chicken from the marinade and discard the marinade. Grill the chicken for 15-20 minutes per side, or until cooked through and golden brown, turning occasionally.

Step 5 - Arrange the chicken pieces on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until cooked through and the juices run clear.

Step 6 - Cook the chicken pieces in the hot skillet for 7-8 minutes per side, or until cooked through and golden brown.

Step 7 - While the chicken cooks, prepare your favourite dipping sauce, like BBQ sauce or honey mustard, for an extra layer of flavour.
