java string replaceall regular expression

Question

I have string (mystring) as below containing double quote:

String mystring = "my regex expression checked=\"someword_and_moreword_value\"";

expected output:

mystring = "my regex expression";

tried with following, did not get expected output:

mystring = mystring.replaceAll("[checked=\\w*_value]", "");

Thanks Andy Brown and Sotirios Delimanolis. If I would have time to read whole regex thing, i would not have come here. Everything is there in book. Sometime, we just need quick answer like one given by @vks. — Nish, Feb 01 '15 at 18:47
