This is a simple, quick and tasty dish that our whole family enjoyed. Perfect for a summer BBQ with friends or family! Tip: Keep pounded boneless chicken from sticking on the grill by making sure the cooking grate is super hot and spray the chicken with a non-stick oil (I used olive oil) instead of oiling the grate. Also, use a large spatula to turn instead of tongs.
