i just bought one of those lean mean fat grilling machines by george forman. how long do i cook one piece?

Question

of thawed out chicken breast from the time i plug the machine in, putting the meat inside the grill? i seem to be burning my chicken. but i'm afraid to undercook it. anyone know?

Answer 1

We sold our George Foreman at a yard sale. Nothing cooked on this grill tasted right. Like you, we could not determine when the meat was done even if we used the recommended times for cooking. The meat never looked done yet when we took it off, the meat was overdone. There was no flavor and we could never get the timing right. We have a Quisinart now that is fabulous. Many people I have talked to have said the same thing about the Foreman grills and they are a hot item at yard sales.

Answer 2

I do a thick boneless chicken breast usually about five minutes on the first side and maybe two on the flip side. But start the timing after it has gotten up to temperature (yellow light goes out on mine). At that point drop the meat on it and keep track of the time.

If you are really worried about under cooking try one piece of meat for just a couple of minutes. Then take it off and slice it open to see what it looks like inside. If it is not done to your satisfaction then put it back for another couple and repeat with another cut. That will give you an idea of how long it takes to lose that pink inside.

Another thing to try is to slice the meat into a thinner filet. That will cook very quickly and you never have to worry about underdone.

After you preheat the grill, I'd try only about 3 minutes and then check it depending upon how rare or well done you like your steaks. I've done them in 3 to 6 minutes depending upon thickness as well as if it's straight from the fridge or at room temp. Just make a small cut into it and decide if it's cooked enough for you! Enjoy your steak. My Foreman is old also, but still works great!

Answer 5

The time will depend how thick it is. I usually slice thick chicken breasts sideways after cooking a few minutes on each side, then grill each half a few more minutes--to make sure the inner meat gets fully cooked. I don't do this for beef, but salmonella-avoidance is a good motivator for cooking chicken well!

Answer 6

Well exercise and eating healthy are pretty much the main things. Bike riding, and swimming are both very good for you, and it's great if you live near the beach. You should also get half an hour of exercise every day, so just going jogging or walking the dog (if you have one). Get more exciting ways to lose weight here:

Once the chicken looks done, it's done. I've got one too. It cooks from both sides so it goes really fast. You may not think it's done, but it should be, If you're real worried about it you could check the temp. inside you're piece of chicken when you think it's done. Ususally around 150 - 170 degrees.

Answer 8

I believe you have to preheat the grill. My foreman-type grill has me turn the timer on it on for 5 minutes for preheating. When the timer goes off, then I put pork loins in it, time it for 5-6 minutes, and they're always done, with nice grill marks.

(Mine's a GE foreman grill, not a real Foreman.)

Answer 9

Four minutes on each side
You should just read the manual that came with it
It has the cooking times in it.

Answer 10

Thaw it out completely. Turn the grill on low. Check it often.
