Use a knife to cut the chicken and remove the tendons, ensuring to clean the chicken thoroughly.

Sanitize the chicken using lemon juice, lime juice, and white distilled vinegar, squeezing the juice from 2 fresh limes over the chicken.

Let the chicken sit for 5 to 10 minutes to absorb the sanitizing mixture, then rinse off the chicken and pat dry.

Finish seasoning with 1 teaspoon and 1/4 teaspoon of seasoning salt and mix everything together until well combined.
