The great thing about this menu is that so much can be done ahead: The night before, marinate the chicken and make the Asian-Style Pickled Shrimp. A few hours before the party, blend a pitcher or two of the lemonade and prep the vegetables. When guests arrive, all you'll need to do is grill the chicken and veggies!
