  • Pour some of the hot marinade into a separate bowl. Place chicken on a grill and brush some of the hot marinade from the separate bowl over the top. Do not place the brush back in the main bowl of marinade after brushing the chicken. Grill chicken until it reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees F.
