Best of Both Worlds



We decided to boil the corn for 6 minutes and then rub them with a pat of butter, sprinkle them with salt and pepper (and chili powder if you want a kick) and put them under the broiler to get the great charred flavor we love from the grill. We turned them every few minutes so they got charred all over. Delicious and so quick and easy!
My contribution, however, was just ok for me. I made Tequila-Lime chicken from a Barefoot Contessa cookbook. It had great flavor, but its just hard for me to get excited over grilled chicken anymore. If you love grilled chicken, I recommend you try it and judge for yourself.
Here is the link to the original recipe. http://www.foodnetwork.com/food/recipes/recipe/0,1977,FOOD_9936_23368,00.html
Don't worry if you can't find skin-on boneless chicken breasts...just ask your butcher to de-bone some for you.

those who know would never boil corn for more than 4 minutes precisely! Otherwise, interesting blog.
