This recipe for grilled chicken with crown royal glaze happened after a cookout. I used the few ingredients I had leftover. Instead of drinking the rest of the crown, I decided to make a glaze with it.
Grilled Chicken with Crown Royal Glaze Cooking Tips:
A lot of people struggle with cooking a juicy grilled chicken breast. The secret is you want to cook your chicken for a few minutes on one side, then place it on the cool side of the grill to bake like it was in an oven. For this recipe, we use a grill pan then pop it in the oven to finish cooking. Finishing the cooking in the oven helps the chicken breast cook evenly and remain juicy.
Can you make ahead?
Fridge: Grilled Chicken: You can make the chicken a day or two in advance. After chicken cools, store in an airtight container for 3 days max.
