COOKING TIPS

Wrapped meats on the George Forman Grill

I'm sure this is a new concept for everyone because on a George Forman Grill you usually just put the meat right on the grill. When you cook outside on a grill don’t you sometimes wrap meat and potatoes when you could just put it straight on the grill? We do it for a few reasons, to keep the moisture in and to seal the flavor. The same principal applies on your Forman Grill.

In order to keep the moisture in and to release the flavor in the seasoning wrap the chicken so that the crease is facing up. Seal the ends of the foil by folding them up. Your foil should be folded 4 times to keep the flavor in and to maximize moisture. You can use this technique with shrimp and beef as well.


Suggestions:
Add salad shrimp on top of the fettuccini Alfredo with a bit of fresh pepper.
If you have chicken left over like I did, slice it in long strips and save it for a chicken wrap for tomorrows lunch.

The ambiance for tonight was a completely set dinner table with a winter backdrop. The curtains were fully open and I faced the golf course while the candles burned. At one point I got up and danced. The radio was on. It wasn’t a romantic dinner because the song “She Hates Me” by Puddle of Mudd was on. So, see, a candle light dinner with a bit of grunge is an acceptable ambiance.
