CHICKEN SKEWERS WITH TARRAGON-PISTACHIO PESTO
Rounding this main course into supper for company is easy. Get store-bought hummus and pita chips for everyone to nibble on while you're at the grill, and serve the skewers with rice or couscous on the side and a bottle of rosé\. Have a guest bring ice cream, sorbet, or cookies for dessert.
