Tips for the Best Results
- Use chicken thighs for juicier results, or chicken breast for a leaner option.
- Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes after cooking to keep it moist.
- Season generously — don't be shy with herbs and spices.
- Use a meat thermometer to ensure the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
