Nashville Hot Grilled Chicken
Nashville Hot Grilled Chicken - grilled version of the best spicy chicken around. Chicken marinated in cayenne pepper, brown sugar, chili powder, paprika, garlic powder and olive oil. Reserve some of the marinade to brush on the cooked chicken if you want it really HOT! Seriously THE BEST grilled chicken recipe! Serve with pickles, ranch and white bread! We are making this again this weekend - SO GOOD!
I am all about some Nashville Hot Chicken. I absolutely LOVE it. My favorite place to eat hot chicken is at Hattie B's in Nashville. I always go with the hot. Chicken Legs is a medium guy. Since we are in the middle of grilling season, I decided to try some Grilled Nashville Hot Chicken. OMG! OMG! I am totally addicted to this chicken! It was ridiculously good!
I used Hattie B's recipe as the basis for this recipe. They fry their chicken and then brush it with the "hot" concoction. I decided to marinate some boneless chicken in the hot mixture and then brush a little of the reserved hot mixture on the chicken once it was off the grill.
The chicken right off the grill, with no extra hot concoction, was equivalent to mild+ to medium heat. The chicken brushed with the hot concoction was equivalent to hot at Hattie B's. We LOVED this chicken. We ate it for lunch and in a wrap with some ranch for dinner. I am still dreaming about this chicken. Make it this weekend and discover why Nashville Hot Chicken is simply the best!
