Instructions
- In a medium size mixing bowl combine the ingredients for the marinade. Whisk together.
- Add the chicken and submerge in the marinade. Cover and place in refrigerator to marinate 2-4 hours (over marinating can cause mushy chicken).
- Preheat grill to 425℉.
- Remove chicken from the marinade and pat dry.
- Place the chicken over direct heat on the grill and cook for 3 minutes then flip the chicken. Cook an additional 3 minutes.
- Move the chicken to more indirect heat on the grill, cover and cook for an additional 5-7 minutes until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 160°F in the thickest part.
- Allow the chicken to rest (the internal temperature will continue to rise to 165°F). After resting the chicken can be sliced and served.
