Grilled Chicken

Today for Sunday dinner we had Grilled Chicken (rub recipe below), rice, corn on the cob, lettuce salad, rolls and strawberry shortcake. I love a well rounded Sunday meal that everyone loves. This is one of them.

BBQ Rub
1 1/4 cup white sugar
1/2 cup salt
1/4 cup paprika
1 1/4 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup pepper
Stir together. Rub on meats 10 minutes before grilling. Store extra in a sealed container. (I make this about once a year and store it in a ziplock bag in the fridge.) This is great on chicken, pork, beef and fish. It is one of our favorites for shish kabobs.

Dinner Rolls
1 egg
1/2 cup warm water
1/2 cup warm milk
1/4 cup softened butter
1/3 cup sugar
1 tsp salt
4 cups flour
1 TBSP yeast

Put all ingredients into the bread pan. Select dough setting. When complete, melt 1/4 cup (I've been using less lately--still yummy) butter. Cut dough into 2 pieces. Roll into circles one at a time and spread with half of the butter. Cut into 16 wedges. Roll up starting at the wide end. cover with wax paper and let rise for 1-3 hours. Bake at 400 for 10-12 mins.

Strawberry Shortcake
Make white cake mix from the box.

Mix 1/2 of a package of cream cheese with sugar to taste. Start with 1/4 cup or so. After well mixed, add Cool Whip until desired creaminess. Spread on cooled cake.

Make 1 package of Strawberry Junket. Add strawberries. When that cools, spread on the cake. Keep cake refrigerated.
