*Note: I used only two racks on a gas grill. I preheated the temperature to about (MEDIUM) 350-400 degrees, turned the temperature down to LOW, cooked the chicken for 5 minutes. And, I turned it over, and cooked another 2 minutes. It should be moist and juicy, but a little charred as well. Also, I used about 10-12 wooden skewers.
