  • Place the chicken on the grill. Use tongs to rotate the chicken as each side is done. Will take about 3 or 4 minutes per side, depending on how hot the grill is.

  • Flip the chicken to get a nice grill mark on all sides. Don't force the chicken to flip. When It's ready it will easily flip over with tongs.
