I'm seriously addicted to this right now. It's a Bobby Flay recipe that I converted to be a bit lower in fat/calories.

To prepare the jerk chicken:

Place the chicken in a large shallow baking dish and rub the marinade into the chicken. Cover and refrigerate for 24 to 48 hours, depending on how intense you want the flavor to be. Preheat grill. Grill chicken on each side for 5 to 6 minutes or until cooked through.0 -

This is the best ever grill recipe...Bobby Flay's Greek style chicken. My husband and I make it at least once a week, but we use boneless chicken breast and also usually put grape tomatoes on a bamboo skewer instead of plum tomatoes. Don't be put off by the number of ingredients. It's easy enough for a week night meal.

Grilled peaches!!!

2 tablespoons honey
3 peaches, pitted and each cut into 6 wedges
Cooking spray $

Dash of kosher salt
10 cup trimmed arugula (about 10 ounces)
2 ounces thinly sliced prosciutto, cut into 1/4-inch strips
2 tablespoons crumbled goat cheese
Preparation
1. Bring vinegar to a boil in a small saucepan over medium-high heat. Reduce heat, and simmer until vinegar is reduced to 2 tablespoons (about 2 minutes). Remove from heat; stir in honey. Cool to room temperature.
2. Prepare grill to high heat.
3. Place peach wedges on grill rack coated with cooking spray; grill 30 seconds on each side or until grill marks appear but peaches are still firm. Remove from grill; set aside.
4. Combine oil, pepper, and salt in a large bowl, stirring with a whisk. Add arugula, tossing gently to coat. Arrange arugula mixture on a platter. Top with peach wedges and prosciutto. Drizzle with balsamic syrup; sprinkle with cheese.0 -
I spray the grill with some olive oil, then throw the meat on it until it's cooked. Sometimes, I'll throw some vegetables on there too.0

My favorite is steak tip kabobs. I marinate about a pound of steak tips in beef marinade (Stubb's is my favorite because its got a little kick and a whole lot of flavor to it, but any marinade - or no marinade - will do). I cut the steak up into chunks and with long skewers I put on a cherry tomato, a slice of onion, a piece of green pepper, a chunk of steak, and repeat once. Usually this will make you about 6 skewers - great for a dinner for two.0

Grilled marinated teryaki chicken breast w/ grilled pineapple w/ steamed asparagus (I read or heard somewhere it's important to have a non grilled green veggie when grilling food)
grilled lemon/garlic salmon filet w/ grilled sweet potato & steamed broccoli
summer squash & shrimp skewers & mango salsa on top
YUM!0 -
I grill EVERYTHING! I'm loving Tilapia and salmon, lately. For the Tilapia, just put a little Mrs. Dash or Lemon Pepper on it (OR you can put a lemon pepper marinade on it, as well) wrap it in tinfoil and throw it on the grill. Very tasty! I also like to cut up potatoes and onions, sprinkle Lowry's on them, and spray them w/ No Calorie Spray Butter and wrap them in tinfoil to grill. OR I cut up Zucchini and Squash and carrots, and use the spray butter and Lowry's on THOSE, wrap them in tinfoil and grill'em up. Bacon-wrapped Turkey steaks are really good, too. I get them at Hy-vee. They have Bacon-wrapped Pork Steaks, too. And little ribeyes, as well.0

Corn! Seriously >> it's amazing.
Not exactly GRILLED but the other night Boyfriend and I made a big bonfire with a few friends and cooked some hot dogs with metal skewers. Deliciouuus.0 -
I make grilled chicken fairly often, I recently tried McCormick Grillmates marinade packets, they come in a packet with herbs and spices and you add oil/vinegar/meat and let them marinate for a while before grilling... the tomato basil garlic one is amazing, Ive tried a few others which were not quite as good, but I'd highly recomend the tomato basil garlic, its also really quick to prep if you dont have much time to spare.0

My favorite thing to do is marinate some pork and chicken, make a big batch of tzatziki, invite some good friends, and have a nice souvlaki fest.
My marinade is what I call "standard greek marinade": equal parts lemon juice and olive oil, garlic, oregano, salt, garlic, pepper, and garlic. Marinate over night.0 -

Artichokes, but you have to steam them a little first
Pinneapple with a little sugard free maple syrup glaze
Sweet potatoes - Sliced like potato chips (you can spritz some olive oil or butter spray on them)
Mushroom caps
Arugala is awesome bbq'd, yes it's suppose to wilt and then brush it with a lite pesto or herbs and olive oil0 -
strawberry/pearl onion/chicken/beef/cherry tomato/avocado kebabs.
Does the avocado hold up ok on the grill? I never would think to grill it...
The rest sounds fantastic...I've never grilled strawberries before.0 -
