Grilling season is officially underway, and Top Chef alum and Houston-based chef Michelle Wallace joined Inside South Florida to help home cooks step up their summer game with a few essential ingredients and time-saving tools.
Perdue Chicken
Purdue chicken is at the center of Wallace’s summer menu. Their Grilled Chipotle Lime Chicken with Strawberry Salsa and Parmesan Garlic Wings are flavorful, crowd-pleasing dishes perfect for any cookout. Purdue products are made with no antibiotics ever and come in new sustainable packaging, making them a convenient and responsible choice for both weekday meals and weekend gatherings.

Hidden Valley Ranch
To boost flavor, Wallace recommends Hidden Valley Ranch seasoning. It's a simple way to enhance grilled wings, corn on the cob, salads, and more. The Hidden Valley Cilantro Lime Ranch adds a creamy, tangy finish, and the easy-squeeze bottle makes it quick to add just the right amount without creating a mess.
