4th of July is the biggest grilling day of the year. Burgers, brats, hot dogs… it’s all served in style, surrounded by the red, white, and blue.

Well, at Doig, we like to class things up, so this year I’m sharing my personal favorite grilling recipe… one that’s unique and won’t be found on every deck in the neighborhood.

I hope you enjoy this delicious dish and have fun with your own 4th of July grilling madness.

Shredded Mozzarella Cheese
Thyme (dried)
Rosemary (dried)
Laury's Season Salt
Black Pepper
Onion Salt
Garlic Powder
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Spray pan so chicken doesn't stick. Season one side of chicken with Laury's Season Salt, Onion Salt, Black Pepper, and lightly sprinkle Thyme and Rosemary. Flip over the chicken breast and sprinkle with Laury's Season Salt, Garlic Powder, Black Pepper and then lightly sprinkle with Thyme and Rosemary. Bake about 25 minutes or until cooked on the inside. Then change oven from Bake to Broil on High. Take chicken out. Cover the top of the chicken breasts with mozzarella cheese. Place back in the oven and watch chicken until the cheese gets slightly browned. Tastes great served with Wild Rice or Potatoes.

She has lived all over the world (her dad was career Army,) and currently resides in Port Washington , Wisconsin . Michelle looks forward to bringing her accumulation of work and personal experiences to the table. On a personal note, she enjoys walking her dogs, roller-blading, traveling, reading, and staying in touch with friends.

For over a year, Doig employees have participated in a lunch-time health and wellness program complete with 2 sessions for exercising. Membership now includes 33% of the company!

Did You Know?
On-site exercise programs can improve job performance, according to a 6-week study of 210 women and men conducted at the University of Bristol. On days when participants exercised, they were an average of 15 percent more productive, got along better with coworkers, and managed their time more efficiently than on days they didn't work out. Researchers say getting the blood pumping energizes employees, increases their level of concentration, and makes them more tolerant of heavy workloads.
