A flavorful grilled chicken recipe with a zesty citrus marinade, perfect for a summer BBQ.
Prepare the marinade by combining olive oil, orange juice, paprika, ground coriander, ground ginger, salt, cayenne pepper, and minced garlic in a mixing bowl.
Use freshly squeezed orange juice for the best flavor.
Place the chicken in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over it, ensuring all pieces are coated.
Marinate the chicken for at least 30 minutes or overnight for deeper flavor.
Preheat the grill to medium heat and lightly oil the grates.
Ensure the grill is clean to prevent sticking.
Place the chicken on the grill, bone side down, and cook with the lid closed for about 45 minutes, turning once halfway through.
Use a meat thermometer to check that the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.
Remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest on a cutting board for 10 minutes before serving.
Resting allows the juices to redistribute, making the chicken more tender.
