Grilled Peanut Butter Chicken Skewers

Grilled Peanut Butter Chicken Skewers

It’s grilling time! Summer is here and it’s time to get some easy grilled recipes in your repertoire, like these grilled peanut butter chicken skewers. Kids will love to eat dinner from a stick with the dip-able peanut sauce to go along side it, too!

The ease of simply placing the skewers in the chicken strips, setting on the grill and whipping up the peanut sauce, is almost too good to be true! Adding some zucchini and squash to the grill really rounds out the meal.

Happy grilling!
