If you do not want to use capturing groups, you can do this:

(?<=["])\w+?(?=["])

It matches a string with a double quote in front of it and a quote behind it.

Also, it's better to use the ? to make it not match more than you want.

Please note that if you have 3 or more quotation marks it may return unexpected results.

The best way is to use capturing groups like that:

"(\w+?)"

and grab the content by capturing group 1.
