Summer grilling with Bertolli Olive Oil and creations form Chef Fabio Viviani

At the end of the afternoon when dinner time rolls around I'm thinking grill and patio. This time of year is enjoyable outside for dinner on the patio, and then stay outside to enjoy the last of the Summer nights until bedtime or the mosquitoes come out.

On Sunday night we made Kabobs on the grill. The chicken was marinated in a chipotle style dressing and the vegetables got a marinade of Bertolli® Olive Oil and a handful of spices. The vegetables on the Kabobs were fresh out of the garden tomatoes, onions, and organic mushrooms and pineapple from the grocery store.

 



Bertolli® Classico Olive Oil has a mild flavor, and is perfect for grilling. You can also use Bertolli® Classcio Olive oil for roasting, and sauces. As the weather turns a bit cooler I'll be turning the oven on more and cooking  roasts for chilly nights.




Bertolli® Olive Oil is improted from Italy and contains select high quality olives oils.
