Tips
- Fold the collar of the Ziploc bag inside out to make it easier to fill and prevent chicken contamination on the outside of the bag.
- When spatchcocking the chicken, hit it with the side of the knife to help it open up and lay flat.
- Place the marinating chicken bag on a plate or half sheet tray in the refrigerator to catch any potential leaks.
- When grilling, heat the marinade to a simmer to disinfect it before drizzling it over the chicken. Do not touch the spoon to the raw chicken.
- The lemon helps cut the sweetness of the marinade, and onion powder enhances the savoriness.
- For the pickles, the recipe can be found pinned to the top of the creator's page along with a video on how to make them.
- Roast the chicken until its internal temperature reaches 150-155 degrees Fahrenheit.
- While the chicken is roasting, you can prepare the rice mentioned in the creator's previous video.
- Do not marinate the chicken for more than 5-6 hours, as the flavor can become too intense.
- Flip the marinating chicken bag halfway through the marinating time to ensure even coverage.
- Wash your hands before and after handling raw chicken and sealing the bag, especially when flipping it inside out to avoid cross-contamination
