When I think about summer, I think of grilling out while the kids play outside. While grilling isn’t something I know how to do (it’s on my bucket list,) my husband does it very well. And he enjoys it. So, over the summer I look for grilling recipes our whole family will love.
This caprese chicken recipe is one we’ve been making for years. Tomato, mozzarella and fresh basil just screams summertime. It’s fresh and full of flavor. Best part, it’s quick to make. Pair it with fresh vegetables and a backed potato and you have a great meal. Enjoy!
