My garden over-floweth with basil these days so I am always looking for a way to use it in our cooking. There aren’t too many things that go together better than lemons and basil, so I decided to throw some together this week to marinate the split chicken breast that I bought, on sale. Most...
Split chicken breasts are one of the hardest meats to grill properly. Grilling with direct heat is the best technique for thinner, boneless cuts of meat because the heat cooks the meat all the way through quickly. The bones in split chicken breasts absorb some of that heat, so it’s a little harder to cook...
I can’t believe we haven’t posted this recipe before. Beer can chicken is one of the most quintessential grilling recipes! I’m not sure whether it’s how funny the chicken looks sitting upright on the grill or the fact that it really is a great way to grill a whole chicken, but it’s certainly a popular...
This has been the year of the rosemary bush in my garden. The bush has declared war on all other herbs in the planter and appears for have set it’s sights on the house as well. I fear that if we don’t take drastic actions, we are going to have to cut window holes in...
We have talked about this before, but grilled chicken breasts are my “go-to” meat for cooking when I am in a pinch. They are easy to keep frozen and can be quickly thawed for a last minute meal. In those cases, I always opt for something easy because I usually haven’t thought ahead enough to...

Crispy skin smothered in sticky barbeque sauce…I personally don’t think nature has made a better wrapper for juicy white meat chicken. Sure, grilled boneless chicken breasts are healthier and cook quicker, but I love to get my fingers dirty and pick the meat off the bones of barbeque chicken. Grilling this type of chicken doesn’t...
Ah the simple, healthy and delicious chicken breast. It’s arguably the most grilled item in the United States. Heck, it’s probably the most cooking meat in the United States, no matter what the cooking method. I know I cooked my share of chicken breasts on the George Foreman grill in college (still do actually, the...
Chicken quesadillas, a taste of Mexican on the grill. These cheesey chicken quesadillas with red pepper and onions make a great second purpose for your Villaware Pizza...
Everyone loves chicken wings, and most of us probably come close to eating our weight of them during football season. Problem is, most chicken wings are fried and we all know some doctors frown upon eating fried foods too often (yeah I know, weird). Here’s the good news, you can grill just about anything (just...
