This is a great last minute recipe

Because you don't need to marinade the chicken for long, just make sure to take the chicken is out of the fridge for a few minutes so it's not super cold. Put the Chicken in a shallow bowl and pour over the marinade, let it sit while you turn on your Coyote grill and prepare the salad or sides we recommend below. Put it on the very hot grill (450/500 degrees) and cook each side for 6 minutes. It will darken perfectly on the outside and juicy inside. Yummy!

Ingredients:

Chicken Breasts {Out of the fridge for a few minutes, so not too cold}
Marinade: 1 cup Balsamic Vinegar, 2 tbs Olive Oil, 1/4tsp Red Pepper Flakes, 1/4 tsp Salt

Salad recipe:

Kale or lettuce of your choice chopped in bite sizes (The key to a good salad is not too much lettuce so each bite is well balanced)
Hard boiled Eggs, Tomatoes, Avacado, Walnuts, Dried Cranberries, Carrots, Cucumbers, Feta Cheese, {Bacon Bits if you'd like}
Salad Dressing: Splash of Balsamic Vinegar, Splash of Olive Oil and Salt and Pepper

If not on a salad here's a Side Suggestion:

Grilled Veggies:

Lightly coat your Veggies with Olive Oil and Salt and Pepper and put on the grill while your chicken is grilling.

5 Tips on how to best store your food from Subzero/Wolf

Fresh Food Matters

Fresh food matters. It nourishes so many parts of life. When you use fresh food, you're touching on matters of health, family life, fitness, longevity, society, culture, the economy, the environment and of course, the pure pleasure of enjoying something delicious.

How do you store that? It's always a wonder of how to best store some of these important foods, enjoy these tips below from our friends at Subzero/Wolf.

Milk:

Store on a refrigerator shelf for 1-2 weeks. Not in the door where the temperature is most variable. Freezing milk is not recommended.

Lettuce:

Most varieties may be stored in your refrigerator's crisper drawer for 2-3 weeks. If roots are attached, wrap roots loosely in a damp paper towel.

Eggs:

Refrigerate for up to three weeks on a shelf where the eggs will not be agitated. As the saying goes, a still egg is a happy egg.

Tomatoes:

Store on countertop away from ethylene-emitting foods such as apples. Don’t refrigerate tomatoes unless very ripe and you need to prolong their usefulness a day or two.

Raspberries:

Store in refrigerator drawers; 3-6 days is the optimum storage time. Don't wash raspberries until just before use. Freezing is not recommended.

Hope you enjoyed these important food storage tips to best optimize freshness. See more at Subzero's website freshfoodmatters.com
