leftover chicken recipes

Grilling is a favorite method of cooking for many people. Many men seem to be drawn to the allure of an open flame. Perhaps there is a sense built in to man from all the previous centuries of preparing food over open flame. There is something great about it.

It isn't hard to grill chicken, but it does take some practice. Follow these tips for grilling chicken, and expand your grilling repertoire.

* Grilling marinated chicken is the main reason why our meats produce some very nice flavors and it makes our meats juicier.

* Marinades boost flavor in grilled food.

* If flare-ups occur, remove the food for a few moments and sprinkle water lightly over the flames, or smother them by covering the grill.

* Do not use a fork to turn the chicken as it cooks. The piercing causes the juices to escape.

* If you're having more than a few guests, ask each one to bring a dish.

* Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature to make sure all meats are cooked thoroughly.

* Allow food to thaw to room temperature before grilling for added tenderness and flavor, but don't let food sit un-refrigerated longer than 20 to 30 minutes to prevent bacteria growth.
