chicken enchilada recipes

Chicken is one of my favorite meats to cook because it is low in fat, high in protein, and if it is cooked properly, it will definitely be a crowd pleaser. There are many different recipes for grilling and smoking chicken. I really enjoy cooking chicken and I do on a weekly basis, it is easy and tastes great.

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

* If you are still cooking with charcoals make sure you should light the coals at least half and hour before so that they have time to get hot enough.

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

* You'll need a nice set of utensils that are well suited for grilling.

* If you have a hard time in telling whether your chicken is almost cooked, you could purchase a meat thermometer.

* Prepare your grill by rubbing it down with oil before you grill so that the meat doesn't stick to it.

* Prepare the fire a half hour or more before grilling.

* 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.
