    Tips For Grilling Chicken

    Recipe





    Try some fast, easy, new recipes that make your favourite
    grilled chicken even better.

    * Coat the cooking grate lightly with vegetable spray to
    keep the chicken from sticking. Prepare the fire 1/2 hour
    before grilling.

    * Add flavour through aromatic wood chips like hickory,
    mesquite or fruitwood.

    * The grill will be ready when the charcoal is about 80
    percent ashy-gray. Cook chicken over a medium-hot fire.
    You should be able to hold your hand a few inches above
    the coals for 3 to 4 seconds.

    * Turn chicken every 5 minutes to insure even cooking
    and doneness.

    * Cook chicken until the juices run clear. The white meat
    should reach an internal temperature of 170-175 degrees.
    Dark meat should reach an internal temperature of 180-185
    degrees on a meat thermometer.

    * Use tongs instead of a fork to turn the chicken. This
    will prevent loss of juices.

    * Skin on a whole chicken or parts helps prevent drying
    and toughening. You can pull the skin off after the
    chicken is cooked, if desired.
