- Loosen skin over breast of chicken by pushing fingers between skin and meat, taking care not to tear skin. Spread blue cheese mix under skin with a rubber spatula or possibly small spoon; massage skin to proportionately spread cheese mix.
- Place chicken, skin side down, on grid over medium coals. Grill over covered grill 5 min. Meanwhile, heat remaining 1 Tbsp. butter; stir in lemon juice and paprika. Turn chicken; brush with lemon juice mix. Grill 5 to 7 min more or possibly till chicken is no longer pink in center. Transfer chicken to carving board; cut each breast in half.
