HAPPY 4th of JULY! RECIPE REPOST-DR PEPPER CAN GRILLED CHICKEN


Since this is the 4th of July, I'm taking the day off to celebrate the holiday.  Just in case you're looking for a last-minute recipe, I'm reposting my Dr Pepper Can Grilled Chicken.  Remember, if you don't have Dr Pepper, any dark cola will do.  

If you're an American, have a great 4th of July.  If you live elsewhere on this great planet, have a great day!  

DR PEPPER GRILLED CHICKEN

1 whole chicken 
1 can of Dr Pepper
1 packet Goya Sazon con Culantro Y Achiote       
Goya Adobo con Pimiento          
Paprika
Olive Oil Cooking Spray








Spray chicken lightly with olive oil cooking spray.  Rub Sazon into chicken skin.  Season inside and outside of chicken with Adobo and paprika to taste.  Pour half of Dr Pepper into glass with ice; you can drink this while grilling.  : )  Place can into chicken can stand (I just realized how funny that sounds) and secure chicken onto can.  Assuming that you are using a gas grill, heat grill to medium high and cook chicken using indirect heat to avoid flare-ups. 


Cook approximately 90 minutes, or until meat thermometer registers at least 180 degrees at thickest part of thigh.   

ALWAYS REMEMBER:  Chicken MUST be cooked to at least 180 degrees.  Also, make sure juices run clear and inside meat should never be pink.  Chicken is very dangerous if undercooked.

Until next time, Happy Cooking!  : )
