George Foreman

In an effort to lighten up the diet a bit, got out the George Foreman.
Made some really nice snapper filets on it the other night, tried some shrimp for a po boy tonite, not too good of results.
Are there any secrets out there for utilizing one of these things?
ETA: I know putting the shrimp on a poboy is not really lightening up, but hell, better than a fried shrimp po boy I figure.

Theyvare garbage and cook everything for the most part way too fast.

A Foreman is essentially a nonstick skillet, top and bottom, with no temperature control.
That can actually work fairly well with some things - the best salmon filets I've ever had were with a Foreman. It was heavenly - done perfectly on the inside with a nice thin crust of spices on both top and bottom, which is pretty hard to do otherwise.
Very good for seafood filets and the like, but more often the lack of temp control makes it easy to (over)cook something but hard to cook it perfectly. I wouldn't put shrimp on one, you need to see it as it sautees.

Perfect for sausage patties, boneless chicken breasts, hamburger patties (when it's too cold for the grill), and great for fish fillets.

boneless chicken breasts,
Only if they aren't too thick. Then the outside is tough as nails.

Pound it out with seasoning on it.

I considered that last night, but decided against it. I'm gonna have to try it next time.
