Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

One 3 1/2- to 4-pound chicken, cut into 8 pieces
3 tablespoons vegetable oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 lemons
2 oranges

Steps:

  • Prepare grill for medium heat. Rub one 3 1/2- to 4-pound chicken, cut into 8 pieces, with 2 tablespoons vegetable oil; season with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper. Grill chicken, skin side down, turning occasionally and squeezing the juice from 2 lemon halves and 2 orange halves over often, until cooked through and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of thigh registers 165°F, 25-35 minutes. Meanwhile, brush another 2 lemon halves and 2 orange halves with 1 tablespoon vegetable oil. Grill, cut side down, until lightly charred, 5-10 minutes. Serve chicken with grilled lemon and orange halves alongside for squeezing over.

The chicken was a bit dry. I think I'll try brining it next time.

This recipe is a bit too sweet for my taste. I'll try using less sugar next time.

A bit too tangy for my taste, but my husband loved it. I'll try using less citrus next time.

I substituted lemon zest for the orange zest and it turned out great! The chicken was still very flavorful and juicy.

So easy to make and so delicious! I love that I can throw everything in a bag and let it marinate for a few hours, then just grill it up. Perfect for a busy weeknight.
