Great Grilled Chicken Kebabs
These Kebabs would be terrific with most any dipping sauce, such as our Thai-Style Peanut Sauce or Golden Mustard Glaze. Even your favorite bottled barbecue sauce will do in a pinch.

I have a recipe here for a Filipino dish derived from Indonesian satay. I've usually made it with pork, but I've also used chicken breast: http://libraryladycooks.blogspot.com/2011/02/recipes-revisitedsati-babi-or-its-been.html

Those who know Beverly well (and those who have read our cookbooks) know how much she adores peanut sauce. In her opinion, if a little peanut sauce is good, a lot is better.

Fourth of July usually means you are going to grill. Some years that can happen in the oddest places on Earth. Probably the most fantastic (or oddest) place I have ever grilled is the sidewalk outside the studios of Good Morning America.

What you're saying..
I was thrilled to see your column in the Charlotte Observer this morning.
A friend gave me your first book as a Christmas present one year. I use it all the time. Actually, we had Two-for One Noodles last night. I've purchased all your books. When we moved, the cookbooks were packed up in storage. I went out and purchased more just to have them with me! I rely on them so much.
Just wanted you to know I’m a faithful follower.
Thanks,

If you have time, you can soak your wooden skewers in water prior to threading the chicken chunks on, this help prevent them from burning up on the grill. But it's no biggie if they do....just break off the charred pieces before serving.
