This recipe offers a flavorful twist on grilled chicken, marinated in a rich beer-based mixture for a tender and juicy result.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the mustard, beer, and lemon juice. Whisk until smooth.
Ensure the ingredients are well blended to create a uniform marinade.
Add the minced garlic, salt, pepper, basil, and thyme to the marinade. Stir to combine.
Fresh herbs enhance the flavor, but dried herbs can be used as a substitute.
Place the chicken parts into the marinade, ensuring they are fully coated. Cover and refrigerate for 2 to 12 hours.
The longer the chicken marinates, the more flavorful it will be.
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grill grates to prevent sticking.
Ensure the grill is clean and well-oiled for even cooking.
Remove the chicken from the marinade and let excess marinade drip off. Discard the remaining marinade.
Allowing the excess marinade to drip off prevents flare-ups on the grill.
Place the chicken on the grill. Cook uncovered for about 10 minutes, turning occasionally to prevent charring.
Monitor the chicken closely to avoid overcooking or burning.
Move the chicken to a cooler part of the grill. Cover and cook for an additional 10-15 minutes until fully cooked.
Use a meat thermometer to ensure the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.
Serve the grilled chicken hot with your favorite sides. Enjoy your meal!
Garnish with fresh herbs for an appealing presentation.
