Grilled chicken recipes:
Basic Brined Rotisserie Chicken (seen in image, above) is a recipe that you can prepare a night ahead. Brining is a way to ensure juicy meat and shiny, golden skin when cooking a whole chicken on the grill. Use the basic proportions for salt, sweetener and water in the recipe below as a guideline, then have fun creating your ownbrines with different herbs or citrus fruit instead of apple.
No rotisserie? Try indirect heat instead. Simply set up a foil drip pan over 1 burner of 2-burner barbecue, or centre burner of a 3-burner barbecue. Heat remaining burner(s) to medium. Place chicken, back side down, or greased grill over drip pan. Clos lid and grill as in recipe.
