Divide the marinade into two portions- one to marinate your chicken and another (in a separate container or bowl) to baste your chicken later while it cooks.

Remove chicken from marinade and grill slowly over medium fire.
Discard marinade used by the chicken (for food safety)
Baste the chicken with excess marinade that was set aside.
