Summertime means it time to get outside and grill, and I love to grill! I especially love grilling delicious meals with homemade marinades and sauces, like these Grilled Chimichurri Chicken Kabobs. Chimichurri is probably one of my favorite sauces, especially when it has a little kick. Pair that with Foster Farms Air Chilled Chicken, and you have an amazing meal!

I love and always recommend using air-chilled chicken. Why? Well, for one it has a better taste and texture; second, it has a faster cooking time. That’s because air-chilled chicken doesn’t absorb excess water, so it tends to cook faster than when chicken is water-chilled.
