Amazing Grilled Chicken
First of all, I need to thank Michael Chu over at Cooking for Engineers for this amazing recipe and instructions. Since I’ve been cooking for a while, I usually tend to improvise on existing recipes based on what I have or feel like doing. But I’m not going to re-create Michael’s recipe here, except to say that I added a few things to his spice rub:
- 1/2 tsp oregano
- 1/2 tsp thyme
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp salt (I probably could have left this out)
I don’t even have a bbq grill. I’ve got a Calphalon Grilling Pan which worked amazingly well on top of my electric burner.
Since I’m more cautious about whether my chicken is cooked properly, I decided against the ‘experienced’ way, and just cut it into, especially since I was planning to cut it up anyway. Michael’s 6 minutes + 10 minutes timing was perfect.
So go check out the recipe at Cooking for Engineers.
I should start off with a caveat – just because a food has health benefits doesn’t mean you can still eat what you like and/or eat that (super)food in copious quantities in order to be healthy. Proper nutrition just doesn’t work that way.
