Expert Tips for Making Grilled Chicken
- How to know when grilled chicken is done?: If you don’t have a meat thermometer, simply pierce the chicken in the thickest part of the meat. If it is white and the juices run clear, your chicken is perfectly cooked!
- For crispy wings: Make sure the wings are as dry as you can possibly make them. Use paper towls to dab them dry for perfectly crispy wings.
- Bone in vs. Boneless: If a recipe features bone in chicken, you can swap it for boneless without changing the recipe much. Just remember that bone in chicken takes a bit longer to cook through than boneless, so adjust your cooking times by a few minutes if you decide to swap them out.
