LLVLC On YouTube (Episode 27): Clean Your Grill, Then Dirty It Up Low-Carb Style

After years and years of using charcoal grills to add a little taste of fire and smoke to my favorite meats and veggies, last year I got a gas grill that is absolutely fabulous! I was concerned about the taste of the food on a gas grill, but quickly discovered those worries were unfounded. The steak, shrimp, kabobs, chicken, and more that I have cooked on that grill have been nothing but AWESOME and I am so happy to enrich my low-carb lifestyle with this flavor-making device!

In Episode 27 of "Livin' La Vida Low-Carb On YouTube," I once again take the show outside the studio with my FLIP camera (can you tell I LOVE this thing?!) to show you a new device called the Grill Daddy that does wonders on a dirty grill as you will see and to cook up some of my favorite Italian Style chicken breasts from Perdue called Perfect Portions. It's a low-carb grilling experience and I'm always happy to help people find a way to make this lifestyle change taste as good as it possibly can. ENJOY!

Watch me grill up some fabulous "cheekin" in today's video:



Grilling out any time of the year is always fun which is why I was so happy to do this in February. Of course, it didn't hurt that it was 65 degrees outside when I shot this video, so that made it even better. I'm looking forward to going to the Hearth, Patio, and Barbecue Association (HPBA) conference in Atlanta, Georgia on February 28th-March 1st, 2008 to see what's new in the world of BBQ cooking! You'll recall some GREAT podcast interviews I did last year while I attended as well as a big grill giveaway for my blogiversary. We'll be working on some more of those for this year's celebration coming up in April! Stay tuned!

Do you love to grill out? Share your grilling tips and what you like to do to enhance your low-carb life with the power of cooking some sizzling meats and vegetables. My favorite part is taking the meat right off the grill like those chicken breasts and immediately slothering some healthy butter and cheese on top for a low-carber's dream meal. Mmmm mmm! Who says this way of eating is BORING?! NOT!

LLVLC On YouTube (Episode 25): Jimmy's Low-Carb Fried Chicken Recipe

It's fried chicken done the livin' la vida low-carb way!

I love to cook and so many people have been begging me to share some of my favorite recipes in a book. I'm certainly considering a "Livin' La Vida Low-Carb" recipe book because I have some favorites as part of my menu repertoire! Today I wanted to share one such recipe with you that so many people have asked about--low-carb fried chicken!

In Episode 25 of "Livin' La Vida Low-Carb On YouTube," Christine and I take the show outside the studio using our new FLIP camera which I absolutely love! This tiny little camera takes truly STUNNING video and makes very good videos with little shaking at all. I LOVE IT and think you will too.

It was fun playing cameraman and trying to make this recipe with one hand. Christine came in and helped me as I got going with it and the chicken turned out pretty amazing. See for yourself and give it a try if you enjoy good fried chicken. You'd never know this was low-carb!

Watch us cook up our fried chicken recipe in today's video:



To make this recipe, all you need is four ingredients: 4 Perdue's Perfect Portions Chicken, 4 Eggland's Best Eggs, Long's Fry It Right, and Nutiva Coconut Oil. The first time I ever made this fried chicken, I couldn't believe how well it turned out. If you miss this usually high-carb food, then how about giving the recipe I shared in Episode 25 of "Livin' La Vida Low-Carb On YouTube" a try? YOU'LL LOVE IT!!!
