Take a bite of the Best Grilled Chicken, though, and you'll wonder how anyone could disagree! Marinated in a tangy, sweet, and sour sauce with notes of garlic and lemon, then grilled to a perfect 165 degrees F for maximum juiciness and savoriness, this chicken pops with powerful flavors that draw you back. Be careful, this chicken might just overshadow everything else at the next cookouts.
