Our Favorite Grilled Chicken Recipes

Chicken is one of the easiest things to grill. We have a couple of grilled chicken recipe staples we love. Most of our chicken recipes can also easily be adjusted to be grilled. Here are some favorites!

• Chicken Satay – For this grilled chicken recipe we use chicken thighs because we love the flavor, but you can totally substitute for chicken breast if you prefer. The peanut sauce is so creamy, and with the char on the chicken tastes so good.

• Sticky Honey Garlic and Chile Glazed Chicken Drumettes – This grilled chicken drumettes make an exceptional appetizer. The sticky sauce is so good! Easily pair with a fresh salad for a full meal.

• Cilantro Lime and Yogurt Grilled Chicken Wings – This is another perfect grilled chicken appetizer recipe. The yogurt makes the marinade super creamy and makes the flavor of the juicy grilled chicken so good.

• Chicken Fajitas – While this recipe doesn’t call for grilled chicken breasts, you can definitely use a grill pan for this recipe if you’re craving that char taste. The chicken marinade for this recipe packs a ton of flavor, and makes the most delicious fajitas tacos. Don’t forget to grill some tortillas too!

• BBQ Chicken Salad – This is one of my favorite salads on the site. We used grilled chicken thighs for this recipe, but you can totally substitute with boneless skinless chicken breasts if you prefer. We slather the grilled chicken in a homemade barbecue sauce, but you can totally use store bought if you want to save a little time. If you decide to grill chicken breasts, an instant read thermometer is super helpful, we like this one, so you can ensure your chicken is grilled at the correct temperature.

Grilled Salad! Perfect for Dinner on the Lighter Side.

• Grilled Avocado and Gem Salad – This is one of our more unique grilling recipes. Grilling the avocado gives it a subtle smokey flavor that we love. This makes a perfect side dish to something super meaty.

• Loaded Salmon Summer Salad – It’s always a good idea to have some delicious lighter salads up your sleeve when the weather get’s too hot and you just need something light. Like our BBQ chicken salad, this is another favorite! The original recipe calls for the salmon to be broiled, but swapping out for grilled salmon it is also an option!

• Summer steak salad – One of our favorite grill recipes! This fresh and easy recipe utilizes a lot of seasonal ingredients, so the prep is really just all about heading to the store and picking out the best ingredients you can find. Don’t skip the bleu cheese crumble on the steak! It’s my favorite part!

• Grilled BLTA Gem Salad – This loaded salad get’s it’s smoky flavor for a lightly charred grilled gem lettuce quarters. It’s such a fun and easy way to infuse flavor. We packed this salad with avocado, bacon, and tomatoes. Throw some grilled chicken on top to make it a whole meal!

Grilled Kabobs make Easy Dinners!

• Lamb Kofta – Our Lamb Kofta recipe is super flavorful. I also love this recipe for the dead of summer when the heat is almost a little too much because the kofta pairs so well with lots of fresh vegetables like cucumbers and tomatoes.

• Beef Satay – This grilled kabob recipe is paired with one of my favorite sauces ever! A thick and spicy Peanut Sauce!

• Lamb Kabobs – We are big lamb fans over here, and these grilled lamb kabobs are so flavorful. We served them with a refreshing mint yogurt sauce. Dinner made easy peasy!
