Method

Chicken Preparation

  1. 1

    Marinate the Chicken

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

  2. 2

    Preheat the Grill

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Make sure the grill grates are clean and lightly oiled to prevent sticking.

  3. 3

    Grill the Chicken

    Remove the chicken from the marinade and shake off excess. Place the chicken on the grill and cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).

Vegetable Preparation

  1. 4

    Prepare the Vegetables

    Wash and slice the zucchini, bell peppers, and carrots into even-sized pieces for uniform cooking.

  2. 5

    Season the Vegetables

    In a bowl, toss the sliced vegetables with olive oil, salt, and black pepper until well coated.

  3. 6

    Grill the Vegetables

    Place the seasoned vegetables in a grill basket or directly on the grill. Grill for about 5-7 minutes, turning occasionally, until they are tender and slightly charred.
