Main Ingredients

Method

Chicken Preparation

  1. 1

    Marinate the Chicken

    In a large bowl, combine olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Add the chicken breasts to the bowl and coat them evenly with the marinade. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours for more flavor.

  2. 2

    Preheat the Grill

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 375-450°F or 190-232°C).

  3. 3

    Grill the Chicken

    Remove the chicken from the marinade and place it on the grill. Grill the chicken for 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).

  4. 4

    Rest the Chicken

    Once cooked, remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

Vegetable Preparation

  1. 5

    Prepare the Vegetables

    While the chicken is marinating, wash and slice the zucchini and bell peppers into strips. Trim the ends of the asparagus.

  2. 6

    Season the Vegetables

    In a large bowl, toss the prepared zucchini, bell peppers, and asparagus with olive oil, salt, and black pepper until evenly coated.

  3. 7

    Grill the Vegetables

    Once the chicken is done, add the seasoned vegetables to the grill. Grill them for about 5-7 minutes, turning occasionally, until they are tender and slightly charred.
