Yes, more chicken. I've really cut down on my red meat. And I've been told I shouldn't eat much pork. So chicken has been my go-to meat on the grill. But what I've learned is that it's difficult to get tired of it if you keep finding new ways to make it. This meal was outstanding.
The chicken had a great flavor. Personally, I'd prefer a little more heat. Next time, I'll be cranking up the amount of hot pepper sauce and crushed red pepper in the marinade—perhaps by up to one-third. What really attracted me to this recipe (found on www.epicurious.com), however, was the notion of marinating corn. I had never heard of it before, so figured I'd give it a shot. The result was the tastiest corn I've ever had. At a friend's suggestion, I added some red pepper sauce (Frank's Red Hot) just before eating. Outstanding.
Let me know what you think.
