Lemon Barbecued Chicken image

My husband loves chicken, so when we bought our first charcoal grill, we needed a recipe for barbecued chicken. We ended up combining two recipes to come up with this one. We've used it the past 3 or 4 years now and haven't come across any recipe that's better.

I'm not a big fan of chicken, but this recipe was surprisingly good. The chicken was moist and flavorful, and the sauce was tangy and delicious. I would definitely make this again.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover chicken. I made a big batch of chicken breasts on the weekend and used them to make this dish on Monday night. It was quick and easy, and it tasted great.

I've tried a lot of lemon-barbecue chicken recipes, but this one is by far the best. The chicken is always moist and juicy, and the sauce is the perfect balance of sweet, tangy, and smoky.

This recipe is a keeper! The chicken was fall-off-the-bone tender and the sauce was finger-licking good. I served it with roasted vegetables and mashed potatoes, and it was a complete meal.
