As the mother of two finicky eaters, I need to devise kid-friendly summer meals that work on the grill. I have found success when I balance familiar ingredients (in this instance, chicken fingers and orange juice) with some palate-expanding, adult flavorings (sesame oil and soy sauce). Using this strategy, I can come up with an entree that is pleasing to the whole family.
