This Best Grilled Chicken Recipe is a tasty main course to enjoy in our meals in any season.
What I like most, that it is a quick and easy one. So, you can cook it in the home kitchen, or even at a picnic, in your backyard, with friends, etc.
In this case, we chose a cast-iron grill over the stove.
Also, you can use charcoal or an electric grill, depending on where you cook.
Furthermore, for a perfect taste, we have to choose fresh chicken and marinate it properly. You also need to know how to use the grill for roasting the meat properly.
You can also explore other chicken recipes on our blog. Meanwhile, I suggest you try crispy Chicken Wings or Stuffed Chicken.
Ingredients
- 1 whole chicken
- salt
- olive oil, pepper
- Lemon juice
- Rosemary
- Other herbs and spices as you wish
- Lemon
- garlic
Directions
- First, rinse the chicken well and dry it with kitchen paper. We cut it into small pieces according to the anatomical parts of the chicken.
- Also, cut the chicken breast into thinner slices. And, as well, cut the thighs to dilute the meat layer and cook it better.
- And, we save the backbones to prepare the yummy tasty chicken soup. If you are a lot of people, then prepare two chickens.
- Then, put the chicken pieces in a bowl, and we will add salt, black pepper, olive oil, a little lemon juice, spices according to preference, crushed garlic, etc.
- Mix the chicken pieces well and cover the bowl. Let them marinate in the fridge.
- At the moment, we want to cook them, heat the grill first and then, take the marinated chicken out to cook. So, we heat the grill and place the marinated chicken pieces on it.
- Let them get good heat on one side and watch the color change.
- We turn them over, and after we see that they have started cooking, we will reduce the heat.
- Then, keep an eye on chicken parts to not burn and move them out of the grill when needed.
- First, remove the fillet pieces no dry them out. Also, leave the thigh parts at the end to cook well inside.
- In the end, remove the meat and serve it warm. Keep the grilled chicken covered until enjoying it. Serve with fresh salad and baked potatoes.
Bon Appetit!
