EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

Serve sauces on the side when cooking with a contact grill. Because grilling temperatures are high, sauces and glazes burn easily if used during grilling.

For zesty, make-your-own wrap sandwiches, slice the warm chicken into strips and serve with tortillas, shredded lettuce, sliced avocado and the sauce.

Contact grills are indoor-use grills that cook the food between two grids. Both top and bottom grids are heated, so food is cooked from both sides in much less time than conventional grilling.

We really liked this recipe and will definitely fix it again. I did it in the oven, but will try on the grill this summer. Thanks for sharing.

We really enjoyed this recipe! I think the only thing I would change, would be the amount of BBQ sauce. I felt like it overpowered the taco and other seasonings just a bit. Other than that, it had a great flavor and it was something a little different!
