Grilled Bacon Wrapped Chicken

This is one of the BEST grilled chicken recipes that I have ever had! Seriously... fire up the grill and make this tonight!!!!
Bacon Wrapped Chicken
Adapted from Serious Barbecue
Marinade:
1/2 cup olive oil
2 TBSP oregano
2 TBSP black pepper
2 TBSP garlic salt
2 TBSP paprika
20 garlic cloves, minced
Juice of 4 lemons
4 chicken breasts
1 lb bacon
Glaze:
1/2 cup brown sugar
Juice of 2 lemons
Combine marinade ingredients in ziploc bag. Add chicken and marinate for at least 2 hours or up to 24.
Remove chicken from marinade and wrap in bacon. Wrap each bacon wrapped chicken breast tightly in saran wrap. Place chicken breasts in 9x13 pan and fill pan with 1/2"water. Bake chicken at 250 for 50 minutes. Remove chicken from oven and unwrap.
Place chicken over direct heat on grill for 5 minutes on each side. Remove to indirect heat, baste with glaze, and continue cooking until chicken is done.

  1. What source of indirect heat do you use after you take the chicken off the grill?

  2. We move it off the fire to the opposite side of the grill. Hope that helps.
