These savory marinated chicken strips are great for a picnic or backyard barbecue. I grill them right along with sausages and hot dogs. Skewering the chicken makes it easy to handle, but you can put the strips directly on the grill or broil them in the oven if you prefer. -Marion Lowery, Medford, Oregon

This is an all-time favorite for our family for years. The only thing I do different is use 1 1/2 lb. chicken. The flavor is unique and delicious! I make it with the Warm Mustard Potato Salad on this website.
