Perfect for a summer soiree, these light and fresh Grilled Chicken Caesar Spears are bite size and packed with flavor. Grill your own chicken breast or use pre-grilled bite size chicken from your local grocery.

These Grilled Chicken Caesar Spears are SUPER FUN to eat! Chicken breast gets coated in mayonnaise and my favorite spicy seasoning then grilled up to perfection on my Weber charcoal grill. Of course, you could make this even easier by purchasing pre-grilled chicken bites at your local grocery.

I know I’m always looking for quick and easy recipes during the hot Summer months. Recipes that get you away from the kitchen and outside where all the fun is at. These would be the perfect addition to any picnic at the park, especially if you buy the pre-grilled chicken. Just package everything up in your basket and assembly is a cinch when you get to your destination. Or how about on your Summer camping trip? I always welcome anything fresh while I’m camping. In fact, I CRAVE IT!

# About Tamara Hi, I'm Tamara, the creator behind The Salty Owl Co. I believe that some of life's best moments happen around the table—sharing a meal with family, gathering with friends, and savoring the simple pleasures of fresh, thoughtfully prepared food. Through The Salty Owl Co., I share seasonal recipes, coastal-inspired cooking, and stories that celebrate a slower, more intentional way of living. Living in the Pacific Northwest has shaped my love for local ingredients and the connection between farm, sea, and table. From freshly caught seafood and garden-grown vegetables to products sourced from small farms and local makers, I'm passionate about knowing where our food comes from and supporting the people who produce it. The owl in The Salty Owl Co. holds special meaning for me. For as long as I can remember, a family of owls has lived on our property. Their familiar evening calls echo through the trees each night, bringing a sense of peace and grounding that reminds me to slow down and appreciate the beauty of home. They have become a symbol of the lifestyle I hope to inspire—one rooted in nature, community, and simple joys. Whether you're looking for fresh recipes, entertaining inspiration, seasonal ideas, or a little encouragement to cook more at home, I'm glad you're here. My hope is that The Salty Owl Co. inspires you to gather often, savor every season, and create meaningful moments around your own table. Welcome to The Salty Owl Co.
