recipes for chicken

If you are grilling other items along with the meat, make sure they do not come in contact with the meat while it is in a raw state. Give the meat and the other items their own separate zones on the grill. Use separate tongs or spatulas to handle these items. When the meat is ready to be removed from the grill, put it on a fresh, or freshly washed, platter and use a fresh set of tongs or spatulas to handle it. Make sure you wash all utensils, cutting boards and your counter tops after they have come in contact with raw meat or poultry.

Remember these easy tips with buying and cooking chicken...

* Try the gentle sweetness of basil and thyme, which are especially good with chicken.

* One of the best kept secrets of barbequing chicken is to lower the heat and wait until it's almost completely cooked before adding any sauces.

* If you are cooking steaks you want the grill to be super hot so that you sear the steak on both sides to lock in the juices, then keep flipping your steaks a couple of times until they are done.

* Grilling marinated chicken is good way to have a delicious meal.

* Food should be ready early so people don t have to wait for it to come off the grill.

* Coat grate with vegetable cooking spray, or brush with cooking oil to prevent food from sticking.
