This
weekend I was to be speaking at the Chicago Flower and Garden Show, both Saturday and
Sunday. I had prepared my Infusions program for Saturday and Blending Herbs for Tea and Cooking for Sunday.
Infusions is a program I love doing and created especially for the Chicago Flower and Garden Show about 5 years ago. I decided to turn it into a book to kick off a series of small books called Herbs R Easy. My lecture participants have consistently said that I make herbs seem easy and I realized it was a great theme. So I brainstormed 43 different ideas that I can turn into small easy-to-read books on singular subjects all related to herbs. The books easy to digest and the instructions simple to use, making Herbs Easy.

Until we schedule a book launch, you can pick up a digital copy of my book INFUSION, first in the series Herbs R Easy, on my website. Infusion focuses on making herb flavored items, like honey, compound butter, and herbal wine or vinegar. If you are interested in my new book, check
out this link to a digital version.
This recipe is great if you make an herb infused honey, especially one
made with pineapple sage or ginger.
Spicy Sweet Chicken Kabobs
1 medium red pepper
1 Tbls vegetable oil
1/4 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup of honey,
plain or herbal
1/4 tsp ginger,
powdered
1/2 tsp granulated garlic
1/4 cup pineapple
juice
4 skinless boneless
chicken breast halves
Directions:
Cut each chicken
breast into 1-inch cubes. Combine oil, soy sauce, honey, pineapple juice and
powdered ginger and garlic in a large zip seal bag and add chicken. Marinade
the chicken in the sauce overnight.
Dice red pepper and drain pineapple. Then alternately thread marinated chicken, pepper and
pineapple onto skewers. Brush kabobs
with any remaining marinade and discard what is left over. Broil, about 6 inches
from heat source, 12 to 14 minutes, turning and brushing.
