This time of the year we do not like to turn on the oven or use the stove unless we absolutely have too.  When the summer heat hits we like to go outside and fire up the grill for our meals.  We like to incorporate a lot of chicken into our diet but for the summer I was hoping to switch up our normal grilled chicken recipes.  Check out these 25 chicken recipes to grill this summer.  Now the big choice is…which one first??
