Quick Easy Grilled Chicken Recipe
We did this Grilled Chicken Recipe on our Stovetop Grill. You can use a stovetop grill or do it on your outside barbecue grill or just a big skillet (or two) or just put everything on a cookie sheet and into a 400°F oven for about 10-12 minutes. Tonight’s method of choice is a stove top grill. It finds it’s way into our routine once or twice a week and it always puts out a good looking and tasty meal.
Today’s tip
You can cook dried beans right from dried. They may take a bit longer to soften, but there’s no harm in it. Or,,Place the beans in a pot and cover with a few inches of water. Bring to a boil. Turn the heat off and let sit (covered) for about an hour. The beans will be just like as if you’d done the long soak. Drain and rinse.
Here is your how to
Put the grill on at medium high and spray or wipe it with olive oil. Salt and pepper the chicken and put the filets on the center of the grill. Cut the zucchini into about 3/8″ slices, crossways or longways, it’s up to you. Peel the sweet potatoes and slice them also into about 1/4″ slices. Salt and pepper both sides of the veggies. Spread them all out on the grill.
Turn it all over when they get seared and grill the other side.
Sometimes the chicken gets done before the veggies. If that happens to you just snuggle the sweet potatoes up and put the chicken on top to stay warm while the potatoes finish.
When the chicken is firm or reads 165°F on an instant read meat thermometer and the veggies are soft to a poke with a fork serve up and enjoy your Quick Easy Grilled Chicken Dinner.
PS – Squeeze a little bit of lemon juice on the zucchini. It’s good!
