How to grill the perfect chicken breast

Grilling chicken breasts can be tricky. To cook a chicken breast with a beautiful golden brown texture you're usually left with raw or undercooked meat in the middle. To thoroughly cook a chicken breast through you're usually left with a tough and overcooked outter layer, which resembles leather. Your friends at Black Tie barbecue have found the perfect solution to your conundrum.
  1. Grill your chicken breasts over hot coals to sear the meat and add a golden brown texture to the outer surface.
  2. Move all the hot coals to one side of the grill to create a "hot" and a "not so hot" section on the grill. Place the chicken breasts on the "not so hot" section of the grill
  3. Cover the chicken in the "not so hot" section of the grill with an aluminum tray (Allow to cook for about 10-15 mins)
  4. Using tongs ( We have burned our hands on several occasions trying to pick up the hot aluminum pan) remove the aluminum pan
  5. Admire your fully cooked golden brown chicken breasts (note use a thermometer to ensure your chicken is fully cooked, chicken should be 160 degrees F. (71 degrees Celsius))
