**Boil the Eggs**: Place the eggs in a pot and cover them with cold water. Bring the water to a boil over medium heat. Once boiling, cover the pot, reduce the heat to low, and let it simmer for 10-12 minutes. Then, transfer the eggs to an ice bath to cool.

**Peel the Eggs**: Once the eggs have cooled, gently tap them on a hard surface to crack the shell, then peel them carefully.

**Marinate the Eggs**: Place the peeled eggs in a clean jar or a shallow dish, and pour the marinade over them. Make sure the eggs are well-coated. Seal the jar or cover the dish tightly, and refrigerate for at least 4-6 hours, or overnight for the best flavor.
