Marinated Grilled Meats, Burgers & Griddle Sides

Mateo Garcia, grill and burger cook – marinated grilled meats, burgers and griddle sides.

Profile:

Mateo Garcia's recipes start with a marinade or a spice mix and end with a good sear. The bulk of his work sits in Grilling: cilantro lime chicken, herb-marinated swordfish, spiced lamb kebabs and Indian-spiced grilled vegetables, each seasoned to hold its own over direct heat. Flavors travel across cuisines, so a dish might borrow a technique from one tradition and a seasoning from another.

Burgers are the second thread. In the Burgers category you will find stovetop, pan-fried and oven-baked versions, including a Juicy Lucy and a quesadilla burger, written for cooks who do not have a backyard grill. His sides mostly come off the griddle: crispy hash browns, loaded smashed potatoes, Mexican street corn and Blackstone fried rice.

What makes the recipes easy to follow is the way they are framed: serving counts in the titles, short cook times where the dish allows, and steps that explain why the pan or grill should be hot before the food goes on. Browse his recipes to find a marinade, a burger method or a side that fits tonight's dinner.
