Tips:

  • Use a flavorful marinade. The marinade will help to infuse the chicken with flavor and keep it moist during grilling.
  • Grill the chicken over medium heat. This will help to prevent the chicken from drying out.
  • Cook the chicken until it is cooked through. You can check this by inserting a meat thermometer into the thickest part of the chicken. The internal temperature should be 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Let the chicken rest before slicing. This will help the juices to redistribute throughout the chicken, making it more tender and juicy.
  • Serve the chicken with your favorite sides. Some good options include grilled vegetables, rice, or salad.

Grilled chicken with wilted slaw is a delicious and healthy meal that is perfect for a summer cookout. The chicken is juicy and flavorful, and the slaw is a refreshing and tangy side dish.
