GRILLED CARNE ASADA
Grilled Carne Asada is one of the ultimate grill recipes. It’s because the skirt steak turns out so tender, juicy and flavorful after marinating and just a short time on the grill. To make, simply marinate the steak for an hour or more, then grill for less than 10 minutes, and dinner is ready! We typically serve in low-carb tortillas or lettuce wraps along with a few of our favorite toppings. Click here for the recipe.
GRILLED TOMATOES WITH BURRATA CHEESE
Grilled tomatoes with burrata cheese are such a yummy twist on caprese salad. When grilled, the tomatoes turn tender with a sweet-smoky flavor. And the soft burrata cheese seems to melt in your mouth along with the grilled tomatoes. We love topping the two with a simple vinaigrette made of extra-virgin olive oil, balsamic vinegar, garlic, mustard, and salt and pepper. It’s a simple summer grill recipe that takes less than 15 minutes to make. Click here for the recipe.
GRILLED CHICKEN SOUVLAKI SKEWERS
These chicken souvlaki skewers burst with Greek flavor since they’re marinated in olive oil, garlic, oregano, rosemary and lemon juice. They’re also one of our favorite grilled chicken recipes. Making the chicken souvlaki is quick and easy. Depending on how much time you have, you can marinate the chicken shortly before grilling (we recommend marinating for at least 20 minutes) or as early as the night before. Once on the grill, the skewers cook in less than 10 minutes. Click here for the recipe.
GRILLED ZUCCHINI AND BELL PEPPER WITH FETA AND TOASTED ALMONDS
We love this grilled veggie salad since the zucchini and red pepper become beautifully charred and are tossed with a light vinaigrette, crumbled feta and toasted slivered almonds. It's a perfect easy-to-make, low-in-carb side dish for your backyard barbeque. Click here for the recipe.
GRILLED CHIPOTLE MEXI-BURGERS
Spicy chipotle burgers served on a bed of crunchy iceberg lettuce and topped with melted cheddar cheese, avocado slices and salsa? YES, PLEASE! The seasoning for the burgers is simple -- just a few tablespoons of minced chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, ½ teaspoon of cumin and salt and pepper to season. Each burger with toppings is just a few net carbs. Click here for the recipe.
GRILLED BROCCOLI STEAKS WITH BAGNA CAUDA
Here is a new favorite broccoli recipe -- grilled broccoli steaks with bagna cauda. Broccoli steaks turn deliciously tender and crisp on the grill and become even tastier when topped with savory bagna cauda. If you haven’t had bagna cauda before, it’s a warm sauce made with olive oil, garlic and anchovies and is typically served with veggies. If you’re unsure of whether you’ll like anchovies in the bagna cauda, you will! They simply add a salty, umami-flavor to the dish that's delicious. Click here for the recipe.
GRILLED CHICKEN SATAY
This grilled chicken satay has it all! When grilled, the well-spiced chicken turns deliciously tender and juicy with areas of crispy, charred chicken. And the peanut sauce is SO addicting! It’s peanutty, sweet, savory, creamy, and a little sour with the right amount of spice. You’ll be licking your plate with this one! Click here for the recipe.
GRILLED CHIPOTLE LIME SHRIMP SALAD
This grilled chipotle lime shrimp salad is a simple and delicious grill recipe that’s healthy, full of flavor, and quick and easy to make. The grilled shrimp are spicy, smoky, tangy and a little sweet since they’re covered with minced chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, garlic and fresh lime juice before serving. The salad is kept simple and fresh with chopped romaine lettuce, sliced avocados, and a vinaigrette made of extra-virgin olive oil, lime juice and salt and pepper. Click here for the recipe.
GREEK HALLOUMI AND VEGETABLE SKEWERS
If you ask us, these low-carb and keto Halloumi and veggie skewers with Greek marinade are one of the best grilled vegetarian dishes. Not only that, they're so easy to make and grill up fast. We love how the halloumi turns soft and crispy when grilled, and it's delicious with the marinade. You can eat the skewers as is, or you can serve in low-carb pita with some tzatziki. Click here for the recipe.
GRILLED ASPARAGUS WITH RICOTTA AND FETA SPREAD
Take your grilled asparagus to the next level by serving over a savory ricotta and feta spread! The charred asparagus is a perfect complement to the creamy spread, which is made from a combination of ricotta and feta cheese, olive oil, garlic, and freshly squeezed lemon juice. It’s a wonderful side dish since it’s a deliciously satisfying, simple to make, and low in carbs. Click here for the recipe.
