Mustard sauces and dressings are among my favorites, so I was eager to try this intriguing grilled chicken recipe that features a really tasty sauce of mustard, lemon, shallots, garlic, oregano, and olive oil. “Grilled Chicken and Vegetables with Lemon Dijon Sauce,” featured on RecipeTips.com, was simply terrific. I mean what’s not to like about this complete dish that includes grilled red potatoes and one of my favorite vegetables: asparagus? Grilling makes asparagus irresistible—the flavor is so much better than asparagus that has been steamed.

Grilled Chicken and Vegetables with Lemon Dijon Sauce

There is one thing I’d like to clarify: If you’re wondering why most of my entries during the past couple of months are about grilled chicken recipes more than anything else, it’s because grilling is my favorite cooking method. This probably comes as no surprise. Grilling provides such terrific flavor to any type of food. The fact is that during the summer months, you won’t find me writing about too many chicken recipes that are not grilled, except when the weather doesn’t cooperate. Besides, here in Minnesota, after suffering through a long winter, most of us like to take advantage of every outdoor moment that summertime has to offer, which includes cooking our meals outdoors on the grill and dining alfresco. So, give “Grilled Chicken and Vegetables with Lemon Dijon Sauce” a try and you’ll agree that it’s one of the best meals for summertime outdoor dining—no matter where you live.
