The most challenging thing with cooking chicken is to make sure that it is cooked right through, with a nice crispy outside. Uncooked chicken is not a good thing.

Grilling season is here. You've got your grill full of gas, you've stocked up on hamburgers, hot dogs, and steaks, and you're ready to go. Chicken also makes a healthy meal, here are some tips should help you on your way to grilling great chicken.

* Figure out how much food and drink you'll need for the number of people you have invited.

* Marinating gives flavors to your meat, it is composed of seasoning, acid and oil.

* Be sure racks are clean and coat them with vegetable oil or a nonstick vegetable oil spray to help prevent sticking.

* To increase the heat, you can push coals together, add more coals or lower the grilling surface, or fan the fire and tap the ashes from the coals.

* When grilling, aromatic woods, such as hickory, mesquite or cherry, can be added to the preheated coals to give the chicken a distinctive flavor.

* It is also important to refrigerate leftovers from grilling promptly. Don't leave them on the counter top, at room temperature, for very long after you have finished eating.
