Any ideas on the best way to do chicken breasts on the grill ?

marinade in italian dressing. Heat the grill to 400-500. Put the boobs on the warming rack and turn the heat down. When they are almost done, turn up the heat and bring the boobs to the grill level to sear them quick.

way to simple for you.

Here are two recipe's from "How to Grill" by Steven Raichlen. This book has some decent recipes for grilling, but not much on que. Still, I've tried quite a few recipes and all have come out great.

Grilled Brined Chicken Breasts

4 breast halves
1/4 cup course salt
1/4 cup packed brown sugar
20 whole black peppercorns
1 red chile pepper, thinly sliced
1 bay leaves
1 cup hot water, plus 3 cups cold water
1 lemon, thinly sliced
1 small onion, thinly sliced
2 cloves garlic, peeled and crushed

Place the salt, brown sugar, peppercorns, chile pepper and bay leaves in a large non reactive bowl and add the hot water. Whisk, then stir in the cold water and let cool to room temp.
Pour the brine over the breasts and stir in the lemon slices, onion and garlic. Cover and refrigerate for 2 hours, turning one or twice. Grill the breasts until cooked, 4 to 6 minutes per side.


Grilled Stuffed Chicken Breasts

4 breast halves
8 sun-dried tomatoes, soaked in hot water for 1 hour, then drained
8 large fresh basil leaves
4 ounces creamy goat cheese
Course salt and pepper
3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons lemon juice

Cut pockets in the chicken breasts, and stuff each with 2 sun dried tomatoes, 2 basil leaves and 1 ounce of goat cheese each. Pin the breasts shut with toothpicks.
Place the breasts in a nonreactive baking dish and season generously with salt and pepper. Pour the oil and lemon juice over the breasts and let marinate, turning once or twice while you preheat the grill.
Grill for 4 to 6 minutes perside until done.
Serve whole or cut the breasts crosswise into thin slices.

bone in, or boneless.

I got a method for each.

Both use offset, on the gas grill, with a searing at the end like Regis suggests.

Cover boob with leather bustier. Sing to boob. When done singing, rip bustier
off of boob. Blame it on wardrobe malfunction.

Grill until juices run clear, then throw a little Southern Flavor on it.

P.S. Remove sunburst pastie before serving.

Kids my eye it's for me. They are usually boneless.

Soak em in soy and fresh ground pepper for an hour or so. Then grill in your normal fashion.

[racer_81]

in a pinch, there's some Jack Daniels (ugh!) marinades that work nicely for
a quick marinade (30 minutes) before grilling.

My families favorite way is to use boneless boobs, coat wtih Dorothy Lynch salad dressing, and grill over mesquite. I like my with a little Law. Seasoned Salt and some Basmati rice. It doesn't get much easier than this and really tastes great.

Whoa! Anybody else feel that? Felt like the earth momemtarily stopped spinning.

Brian had rice?

Lately, I've been marinating in this stuff called Mojo Criollo. You can find it in the Mexican food section of the grocery store. It's got a good citrusy/vinegary twang to it. If I'm out of that though, I do as Phil does and use the Wishbone Italian dressing.

Dorothy now works at a Chinese resturant and is in charge of "woking the dog."

Greg's on the right marinade track except he forget to mention adding beer, a squirt of any citrus juice, some brown sugar, garlic and ginger.

Mesquite coals and/or Oak would be ideal.

[parrothead]

I'm a simple fellar. Sounds good though. Is that about what you did with the chicken you cooked for me?

[Mark]

Yep

[parrothead]

Dat was good chit.

garlic and ginger is a must anytime you are marinating anything in soy sauce. Ah well i guess brown sugar is a staple too. Oh i forgot the green onions too.
