Grilling Times for Chicken and Poultry

Here's how long to grill chicken so it's not overcooked or undercooked.

Chicken is one of the all-time most popular choices for grilling. This handy chart shows you how long to grill different cuts of chicken, including grilled whole chickens, grilled chicken breasts, grilled chicken kabobs, grilled chicken thighs, and grilled chicken wings and drumsticks. We'll also share top-rated grilled chicken recipes so you can try out the different grilling methods.

Safety Note:

Chicken and other poultry should be cooked to an internal temperature of 165 degrees F (75 degrees C). Keep in mind, clear juices are not always a good indicator of doneness. Depending on the age of the bird, juices might not run clear until it's overcooked. Also, as you see from the chart, boneless cuts of chicken cook faster than bone-in pieces of chicken.
