The BBQ Queens are back to show the world that grilling is not just for the weekend! In Weeknight Grilling with the BBQ Queens, Karen Adler and Judith Fertig offer 100 easy and versatile recipes for weeknight dinners on the grill, and most can be prepared in 45 minutes or less. The Queens’ straightforward, fun-loving approach shakes up the monotonous routine of cooking dinner and gives busy people everything they need to get healthy, great-tasting meals on the table quickly. All the recipes and suggestions needed for each dinner are included on a two-page spread for maximum convenience, and the ingredients called for are either readily available in grocery stores or already sitting in the pantry. The BBQ Queens explain a variety of grilling techniques, such as skewering and stir-grilling; offer Time-Saving Tiara Touches providing shortcuts and other ways to streamline dinner prep; and include recipes for turning grilled leftovers into wonderful new dishes.
Weeknight Grilling with the BBQ Queens makes dinner preparation such a snap that the only difficulty is in choosing which of the mouthwatering dishes to serve, such as Grilled Flank Steak with Avocado Salsa Verde and Grilled Corn; Asiago Grilled Chicken Breasts with Linguine Marinara; Lime-Basil Shrimp with Grilled Polenta and Asparagus; Grilled Vegetable Roll-Ups with Feta-Olive-Lemon Filling; Mesquite-Grilled Pasta Salad with Chicken, Peaches, and Cashews; or Tandoori Turkey Burgers with Onion, Tomato, and Cucumber Raita. These user-friendly recipes harness the power of the grill to make tasty, nutritious meals easily achievable all week, every week.
