HONEY-GLAZED GRILLED CHICKEN
This recipe calls for a whole chicken cut up, but feel free to use your favorite pieces. I like using the whole chicken because it gives everyone a choice. If you like your chicken saltier or spicy, add some seasoned salt before starting the grilling process. I find the soy sauce adds enough salt for me. Prep time does not include the time needed for your grill to get hot.

This was great. We all loved it & will make again. We used skin on thighs but I did debone them. A little extra work but well worth it. The cook time..well I make sure the chicken is done.
