So, as the subject says I want to grill boneless skinless chicken outside on the grill.

There's only two problems..

1) I've never grilled on the grill by myself so I am bit nervous but I think I can do it!
2) I've never grilled chicken on an outdoor grill.

So, any tips or suggestions?

Thanks!!

Amber

    ha its easy, put the grill on let it heat up for 5 mins, in the mean time put some olive oil and pepper on there, or watever u want and then throw it on and let it go.. flip it after like 4-5 mins depending on how thick they are, pretty simple, u can do it! lol good luck!

    Haha! I feel your pain! I always leave the grilling to my husband because I have a tendency to overcook everything afraid that it won't be done otherwise. Seriously though, marinate it in a low cal marinade first. It will help to keep it juicy. Low and slow is the best way, and if you have wood chips for smoke it adds a ton of flavor with no calories. :-)

    I rub the chicken with extra virgin olive oil, sprinkle with kosher salt, pepper, granulated onion and granulated garlic. Grill on high to sear the outside of the chicken(direct heat) then move it to a part of the grill where the burner is off (indirect heat). It's good to have an instant read thermometer. Remove it from the grill when the internal temp is 160 and cover with AL foil, let it sit for 5 minutes for juices to redistribute and the temp will rise to 165.

    USDA Recommended Safe Minimum Internal Temperatures

    Steaks & Roasts - 145 °F
    Fish - 145 °F
    Pork - 160 °F
    Ground Beef - 160 °F
    Egg Dishes - 160 °F
    Chicken Breasts - 165 °F
    Whole Poultry - 165 °F

    most of above is correct.

    After you start the grill, let it heat up at high heat. Then - turn it down!

    Spray with the Weber Non-stick grilling spray, or you'll be screwed.

    Place chicken on, close, and let sit for 7-10 minutes. Flip. Let sit again. Check with probe thermometer, and pull when at 160*.
