Wow!! What a fun and different way to make grilled chicken. I was only cooking for two of us tonite, so I cut the recipe in half. I used the soy sauce and optional marsala wine. Instead of serving it with the lemon halves, I melted 1 tablespoon of butter and mixed in the fresh lemon juice. I then basted the chicken a few times while grilling with the butter. The only other change I made was to use seasoned salt and pepper. Thanks for another great recipe!!!! Made for PAC.
