Whole Grilled Chicken

This whole grilled chicken is brined, then coated with lemon, rosemary, and garlic, and grilled to tender juicy perfection. Perfect for backyard barbecues or any other time you need to show off your grilling skills.

This whole grilled chicken is definitely a 5 star recipe! I was a bit skeptical about using the lemon with it’s peel, but the rub truly imbued the chicken with an amazing flavor. The combination of the brining with the low temperature grilling make the chicken incredibly succulent and tender.

Chicken Skewers

These chicken skewers are magnificently easy to toss on the grill for a quick dinner. The distinct Thai taste comes from a simple marinade of coconut milk, fish sauce, cilantro, and curry.

Can healthy also taste good? Oh yes! We really enjoyed these chicken skewers. I served these delectable gems with a Thai peanut sauce for dipping, coconut jasmine rice, and grilled pineapple. It was quick and easy and loaded with flavor. These are wonderful, flavorful, and I cannot wait to make them again soon.

Grilled Rosemary-Garlic Chicken

These grilled rosemary-garlic chicken thighs rely on a quick and simple lemon marinade and a quick turn on the grill for their robust flavor and tender juiciness. Simple enough for weeknights. Special enough for dinner parties.

This grilled rosemary-garlic chicken was amazing! So tender, so moist. I’m a novice barbeque-er and this was perfect, so easy.

Grilled Roasted Chicken

A paprika and chili powder rub coupled with an indirect cooking method ensures that this gorgeous bird has tender, juicy meat, and shatteringly crisp skin. If you've never spatchcocked a bird, now's the time to try it.

I’ve roasted many a chicken but this was the BEST ever! The rub gave it great flavor without being overpowering, the skin was crisp and the meat was moist. Used my gas grill and it was nice not to have to worry about smoking/burning cicken!

Grilled Greek Chicken

What gives this grilled Greek chicken its voraciously vibrant flavor is a lemon marinade full of garlic, parsley, oregano, rosemary, thyme, and basil. It brings a Mediterranean mojo to a simple summer supper.

Amazing! This grilled Greek chicken was definitely one of the easiest and best tasting chicken dishes that I’ve made, and I’ve made many over the years. Five stars doesn’t do the recipe justice. It definitely deserves more!

Chicken Thighs with Balsamic Barbecue Sauce

Why did it take someone so long to think up chicken thighs with balsamic barbecue sauce? Simple, easy, and made with pantry staples, such as ketchup, honey, balsamic vinegar, and soy sauce, this meal comes together quickly. Take advantage of late-season corn to round out the meal.

I was searching for a quick, yet tasty, chicken dish and found this one for chicken thighs with balsamic barbecue sauce. It was perfect! Flavorful and succulent, tangy and sweet, and easy to put together with everyday ingredients. I will definitely add this to my recipe go-to list.

Tandoori Chicken Wraps

These tandoori chicken wraps combine grilled chicken marinated in yogurt, ginger, garlic, and Middle Eastern spices with a cooling yogurt and mint dressing. Everything is wrapped in tortillas, pita, or naan.

This was a simple, versatile, and delicious recipe for chicken wraps. I would definitely prepare it again. I might add chopped cucumbers as an additional stuffing. It is perfect for entertaining, because everything can be prepared ahead so the host has only to worry about grilling while chatting with guests.
