General's Grilled Chicken

If you've ever had General Tso's Chicken at your favorite Chinese restaurant, you will completely understand this twist on grilled chicken. If you've never tried General's Chicken (as it's commonly referred to), and you like sweet, sticky and spicy Asian sauces, give this a try. The idea for the dry seasoning came from a co-worker who uses it on her roasted chicken. She brought me a packet of the seasoning and this is what I came up with. Thanks, Beverly!

Grilled Artichokes with Garlic-Chive Aioli

Spring is the peak harvest time for artichokes, and this time of year is also the kick-off of the traditional grilling season. I'm almost embarrassed to say that, although I love artichokes, I've never grilled them. I finally struck them from my to-try list last weekend. Being flower buds, artichokes require some unique preparation, but it's really not difficult. Once you get the hang of it you can make pretty quick work of them. Like many things, the first one is a learning experience.
