Grill it, don't incinerate it
Grilling meat is an easy way of saving calories. However many people associate grilled food with dry, tough and tasteless food.
There are two ways of ensuring that grilled food tastes great:
1. Preheat the grill for at least ten minutes.
2. Time the cooking of the meat.
I find that boneless/skinless chicken breasts require about 10 minutes, and sirloin steak as little as 6 minutes (turning the meat over half-way through the cooking time).
If these times leave the meat too rare for you, put it back under the grill for a minute at a time until you find the 'done-ness' that suits you. Record the total grilling time, and use that in the future.
