FAQ

How do you grill chicken for beginners?

After about two to three minutes of high heat, reduce the heat to medium-high, add the oil, and make sure the entire pan is well-coated. Add the chicken breasts to the pan and cook for five to six minutes on the first side without turning, or until the undersides have dark grill marks.

How do you grill chicken without a grill pan?

To grill, preheat the grill to medium-high heat, lightly oil the grates, then place the chicken skin-side down and cook for 5–6 minutes, or until grill marks start to appear, before turning it over and cooking for an additional 6–8 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.

How do I pan fry chicken so it’s not dry?

Put your food on a broiler pan, position the pan on an oven rack, and cook your food as you would on a grill by flipping it halfway through.
