chicken dinner recipes

Gas grills are hugely popular in this day and age. Most households are trading in that old charcoal burner for gas. There are many advantages to owning a gas grill over a hardwood charcoal grill, but they also have some similarities. They each cook food. That's the main thing both grills share. And even though you may love that gas grill, you may still be hard pressed to find some new recipes to try out on it.

No matter how you like to grill your chicken, we recommend the following tips to keep your grilling season safe, flavorful and fun.

* Start with chicken that has been trimmed of excess fat and remember to baste carefully so oil won't drip onto the coals and cause flare ups.

* Plan your menu, but keep it simple.

* Marinating gives flavors to your meat, it is composed of seasoning, acid and oil.

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

* 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.

* It is always preferred to use low fire in grilling in order to avoid burnt meat.

* Be sure all utensils, plates, and cooking surfaces are clean, and your hands are washed well before and after handling raw chicken.
