GRILLED HERB-MARINATED CHICKEN BREASTS
The key to moist grilled chicken is leaving the skin on during cooking. Some people are reluctant to do this because they think it will increase the fat calories in the finished dish. But the fact of the matter is that, if you remove the skin before eating the chicken, you'll reap the best of both worlds: juicy chicken without significantly more fat than if you'd removed the skin before grilling. Cooking time does not enclude 6 hours marinading time.
