"This grilled chicken gets great flavor from the outdoor grill, but cook time outside is quick because it is partially cooked beforehand. Marinating time is not included in the prep or cook time."

Excellent! This chicken came out moist and a delightfully tasty. The flavor was there, not wimpy nor too much. Followed all as directed, but towards the end I lightly sprinkled some leftover homemade seasoning because I had to use it up. Came out perfect. Sure glad I tagged this one over at “For your Consideration tag game” at Food Friends and Fun

Because of DH, the chicken was almost 24 hours in the marinade. But we liked the taste of the chicken. The texture was perfect. We used it in a salad. The chicken was not dry, which was perfect. That's a great way to cook the chicken. Thanks Lynette :) Made for Photo tag game

Great flavor! I was worried about the soy sauce being too strong but it wasn't. The flavor was delicious and my whole family loved the chicken. I did use boneless/skinless chicken breasts so I halved the cooking times. Also, since I only used 4 chicken breasts I halved the marinade. I will definitely try this method and marinade with bone-in chicken next time. Thank you for posting a winner!
