Notes
- If you need to marinate the chicken fast you can vacuum seal the chicken which will remove the air and push the marinade deep into the meat.
- To prevent discoloration you can leave the lemon out and then add it back in a few hours before grilling.
- We all like to add a little sweetness to the chicken but it can burn when cooking at high temps. you can always drizzle on honey after the chicken is cooked or add it to a finishing sauce to brush on before serving.
