Honey, Lemon & Rosemary Grilled Chicken
Updated March 26, 2019
Memorial Day is right around the corner. Is your grill ready? We love grilling out, especially on holidays. It is tradition. Josh always “mans” the grill. One of his favorite recipes to serve up is this Honey, Lemon & Rosemary Grilled Chicken. It is great to serve at parties because it goes with everything and everyone loves it.
This recipe is super easy to make, which makes it perfect for summer parties. You can make it in advance because the chicken needs to marinate for at least 30 minutes and can marinate in the refrigerator overnight. Remove the chicken from the marinade when your grill is hot and ready!
We like to serve this Honey, Lemon & Rosemary Grilled Chicken with Bush's Southern Pit Barbecue Grillin' Beans. The beans are a great side for your Memorial Day BBQ!
