Okay, so I know many of you have been in full grill swing for awhile now, but my grill was in serious need of spring cleaning.  I got it cleaned up a few weeks ago and have been utilizing her.  (She’s a she because the she in our house is the one that uses her most of the time!)

If you have a Trader Joes near you, I would also highly recommend grabbing one of their marinated tri-tip roasts and throwing one on the grill.  You might as well grill some veggies while you are at it and have a great meal.  Yumminess!

For Anya’s birthday I made these Chicken Satay skewers and they were all gobbled up.  I should have made more, actually.  My dad even said he liked them and he doesn’t like peanut butter.  Which??  In our household those are fightin’ words!  It is it’s own food group here.  I made them again last night and they continue to hit my yummy bone.  Since this is not a recipe I made up out of thin air, per the usual, you can hop on over here to find  the recipe.

I don’t put the hot sauce in it because of the Littles.  They definitely wouldn’t eat it then!  I’ve also made this on my little teeny George Foreman grill in the winter.  I made them last night with some sushi rice and steamed broccoli.   Brian suggests for wine pairings to go no heavier than a light Pinot Noir or Grenache.  A dry Riesling would go well with this dish.  Enjoy!
