    I find that when I grill chicken with any sauce or marinade on it as opposed to just spices, the excess burns in the grill pan around the chicken. Any tips?

      Grill indirectly. (Meaning not directly above the flame). It’ll allow the chicken to cook without scorching. It sounds like the sugar components in your grilled marinades are what’s burning. Sugar always gets burned if it’s placed on the open flame too long.
