By Jerry Mcgahan


Barbecue cooking can be a lot more adventurous than burgers and ribs. You can use your grill to prepare distinctive dishes from all over the world. Here are some simple grilling recipes to enhance your outdoor eating.

Halloumi is a Cypriot cheese that is perfect for grilled vegetarian kebabs. Cut the cheese into one inch cubes and thread onto skewers along with cherry tomatoes and pieces of green pepper. Brush with olive oil. Grill the kebabs, turning frequently, until the vegetables are tender and the cheese is golden brown.

Bring an Asian twist to your picnic with soy and honey drumsticks. Combine 2 teaspoons Chinese five spice powder with 1 tablespoon ketchup, 1 tablespoon honey and 2 tablespoons soy sauce. Make slashes in the skin of eight drumsticks. Coat the chicken in the sauce and marinate overnight in the refrigerator. Grill for 35-40 minutes or until the juices run clear.

Koftas are Middle Eastern meatballs that are often grilled on skewers. Mix 1 tablespoon chopped mint, 3 crushed cloves of garlic and 2 teaspoons each of coriander and cumin into a pound of ground lamb. Roll the meat into eight oval shaped balls. Thread metal skewers with two meatballs each and coat with olive oil. Grill for five minutes, then turn and cook the other side.

Grilled lemon salmon is fresh and tangy. Whisk together 2 tablespoons olive oil, 4 tablespoons lemon juice, 1 tablespoon lemon zest and 1 tablespoon dried dill. Season four salmon steaks or fillets with salt and pepper. Cover with the dressing and marinade for 2 hours in the refrigerator. Grill on both sides until the salmon is flaky and pink.

There are even Simple Grilling Recipes For desserts. Try these chocolate bananas. Cut through the skin along one side and fill with mini marshmallows and chocolate chips. Wrap in foil and seal shut. Place the foil packages into the embers at the bottom of the barbecue. Bake for about 15 minutes so that they are gooey inside. The chocolate and marshmallows compliment each other.
