"To prevent chicken from sticking to the grill, ensure the grate is hot and greased. Preheating the grill allows for a good sear, which helps the chicken contract and release from the grate."

"A thin layer of oil lubricates the grate and aids heat transfer. Additionally, orienting the chicken perpendicular to the grain minimizes surface area contact with the grate, reducing the likelihood of tearing when flipping."
