Grilled Caribbean Chicken *TIP

What better way to enjoy getting outside than grilling for your family. If your the griller in the family you know to keep your chicken juicy is to marinate, marinate, marinate before grilling. 

Tip: Once your chicken reaches 165F remove it from the grill and cover it with foil for at least 5 minutes. This tip is absolutely necessary to get tender, juicy chicken, because it redistributes the juices within the chicken instead of the juices running out onto your plate.
