I am marinating boneless skinless chicken breasts with teryaki and pineapple juice. Is there such a thing as marinating too long? I was thinking 4 to 6 hours, but is that too long for chicken.[p]Thanks,
IlliniEgger

    IlliniEgger,[p]WIth teriyaki you are OK to marinade even overnight. The only time marinades can go too long is if they are acidic and you are using an otherwise tender cut of meat.[p]I think a 4-6 hour window is plenty to infuse the flavor.
