The weather is warm. The sun is shining brighter. You can just feel that school is almost over for the kids. It's the perfect time to prepare a grilled meal and eat outside on the deck. Try my recipe for Grilled Asian Chicken with Ginger Cilantro Rice. It's one of my favorites for when the weather starts getting warmer. This recipe is simple with a nice twist: adding some Asian spices and ingredients is easy and always tastes great.
Grilled Asian Chicken with Ginger Cilantro Rice
6-8 chicken breasts (trimmed of any fat)
¼ c soy sauce
1 T fresh ginger chopped
1 T garlic chopped
1 T sesame oil
¼ c honey
1 bunch scallions (trimmed and washed)
1 cup shiitake mushrooms (stems removed)
Mix soy sauce, ginger, garlic, sesame oil and honey all together in a large bowl. Add the chicken breasts and let sit for at least 30 minutes (you can even let the chicken marinate over night).
Set the grill to high and grill chicken for 5 minutes on each side.
Brush scallions and shitakes with a little of the marinade or just with some oil and grill for about 3-4 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
For the rice:
1 cup long grain rice
3 T butter
1 piece of ginger in long slices (you will discard these after the rice is cooked)
1 small onion, diced
1 ½ c chicken stock, vegetable stock or water
1 cup cilantro, picked and roughly chopped
1 T seasoned rice wine vinegar
In a pot over medium heat melt butter add onion. Sweat until onions are tender and then add ginger and rice. Season with salt and white pepper. Add stock. Cover and cook for about 15- 18 minutes or until all liquid is absorbed. Remove and discard the ginger from the rice. Finish by stirring in the rice wine vinegar.
Serve with the Grilled Asian Chicken and enjoy!

I found your site on Google and noticed that you have an Adwords PPC campaign (I didn't click on your ad). We help our clients get to the top of the natural search engine results for competitive keywords, so our clients can lower PPC costs and increase traffic.
While 90% of budgets go to PPC, only 10% of clicks go there. The reverse of that is only 10% of budgets approximately go to SEO, but 90% of clicks from users are going to organic results and search engines.Our staff and employees are US only, and our references and case studies prove our success rates. If you're interested just let me know and I'll run an SEO analysis of your site (at no charge), to see what needs to be done to get you to the top of the organic results.

My husband and I love to cook and we've got four boys to do that for! We realized this school year we want to be a lot more organized, since it's important for us to all eat dinner together (as much as possible). I appreciate this site and will be using it CONSTANTLY. My husband, Joel, found your recipe for the ginger & cilantro rice and we can't wait to try it!
