For best results, use high-quality feta cheese. The flavor really shines through in the whipped feta. Don't overcrowd the grill. Cook the chicken in batches to ensure proper searing and even cooking. If you don't have a charcoal grill, a gas grill or even a grill pan can be used. Adjust cooking times accordingly. Serve with grilled vegetables like red onion and bell peppers for a complete meal.
