There are burgers and hot dogs, but no dish speaks to true grilling prowess quite like perfectly grilled chicken breast. Marked by the grill and turned a most gorgeous caramel-colored hue, the very best grilled chicken breast promises to be juicy and tender — and as versatile for quick summer meals as a good tomato. Grilled chicken has become so ubiquitous, though, that we often forget what a real stunner it can be among dry and less flavorful grilled fare.
The key steps to really juicy grilled chicken are kitchen essentials — lessons that even the most seasoned griller should revisit each year. Pound the chicken thin for more even cooking, brine or marinade for flavor and color, and grill over direct heat for grill marks, but finish over low heat to keep them juicy.
Ready for the best grilled chicken of the summer? Let’s go.
I’m a little too distracted this week to pull together a proper meal plan yet, because via text messages with my sister-in-laws I sort of accidentally volunteered to host Easter brunch this Sunday. And by accidentally I mean, I offered to host. One sister-in-law is in the midst of a kitchen remodel and the other has business travel late Sunday afternoon, so neither was up for hosting. On a whim, I invited our new neighbors who just relocated from Michigan to join us too. The more the merrier, right?
Now, on the eve of Easter I need an easy Easter brunch menu to serve 15, both adults and kids, that still gives me time to hang out with my own family on Easter morning too. Here’s my menu, plus my strategies for an easy last-minute brunch.
When you think of Greece, you may think of many things — warm Mediterranean weather, the Parthenon, perhaps — but I think of feta cheese. Greece is most definitely the motherland for this salty, tangy, oh-so crumbly cheese. Go visit the cheese aisle of your local grocery store and you’ll most likely be greeted by a myriad of feta choices from Greece. So how do you choose the best one? Keep these tips in mind and you’ll be able to find the feta that’s right for you.
Brace yourself for the following: You can craft a dizzying array of cocktails from a surprisingly small number of spirits and mixers. It’s just a matter of owning the right bottles (that, and a little know-how).
Welcome to the 9-Bottle Bar, a column dedicated to helping you amass an efficient, versatile, reliable-in-a-pinch home bar, without spending a fortune and ending up saddled with ingredients you’ll seldom use.
Close your eyes, take a sip, and let the sweet, spiced bubbles transport you to a paradise with white sand beaches and stunning turquoise waters — no passport required. This fresh, non-boozy take on a dark and stormy nixes the rum and leans on sweet pineapple for an extra-special tropical twist.
Does yogurt go on your grocery list on autopilot? You don’t have specific plans for it, but you know it will at least get eaten with berries and granola. I’m guilty of this and find myself eating it with berries day after day until I’m bored to death. So I’m challenging myself to a better, non-boring week of breakfasts using that tub of yogurt. Here are a few ideas I’m going to try out. Take a look and see what inspires you too.

Warrior Fit Testimonials
First, I want to say thank you for convincing me to do Tabata! I was struggling to lose weight and Finally I found something that helped! I really appreciate your coaching! - Craig T.
Ever since I was convinced to do Tabata I have seen huge results, I lost 6 pounds and gained energy in the first 3 weeks. I have been working out for 3 months before I decided to do Tabata and I struggled to lose weight.
At first I thought "How am I losing weight by bringing my heart rate up then cooling down then bringing it up again?" I don’t know how it works but it does!
Thank you!! - Theresa F.
The first day of Tabata, I wondered WHAT AM I DOING - I AM 56 !! Five weeks later I knew that it was what I needed. I learned that I could push myself well beyond my comfort zone and feel good later. I have a marked improvement in physical as well as emotional endurance. - Lyn C.
When I was first told about Tabata I was very excited from the word go, however that excitement stemmed from the fact that I had no clue what it meant. I missed the first week of class b/c I was traveling for work so when I came in during the 2nd week I had some making it up to do.
It was hard at first b/c my body wasn't used to working out at such a fast pace, but once I got into a rhythm I started to feel very good. These classes are no joke. If you stick with it you will leave there feeling stronger, healthier and overall better about yourself and what you've accomplished.
I would recommend these classes to anyone. Darrin is a great trainer and he'll keep you going with his energy.
