GREEK CHICKEN WITH GREEN BEANS
My Greek grandmother made the most delicious Greek chicken and green beans with a lemon-tomato flavor. Whenever I make this slow-cooker recipe, I think of her. The juices from the chicken help flavor the green beans, but the beans can be prepared alone as a side dish without the chicken. -Elizabeth Lindemann, Driftwood, Texas

Steps:
- For the buttermilk dressing: Whisk together the buttermilk, mayonnaise, chives, parsley, garlic, lemon zest and juice and 1 tablespoon water in a medium bowl. Season with salt and pepper and set aside.
- For the grilled chicken and beans: Preheat a grill or grill pan (over 2 burners) to medium-high heat. Make a double thickness of aluminum foil about 18 inches square. Toss the green beans with the olive oil and salt and pepper to taste and spread on one half of the foil. Fold the foil to seal the green beans in a rectangular package, leaving a little dome at the top. Put the green bean package on the grill and grill until tender, about 18 minutes. Remove from the grill and let the beans steam in the package until ready to serve.
- Meanwhile, brush the onion rings with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill on the other side of the grill until charred and tender, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove to a bowl when done.
- Sprinkle the chicken with salt and pepper, brush with olive oil and squeeze the 2 lemon halves over. Grill the chicken, turning once, until cooked through, about 3 minutes per side. During the last 2 minutes, add the lemon quarters to the grill just to char.
- To serve: Empty the green beans into the bowl with the onions and toss with 3 tablespoons of the dressing. Mound the vegetables on plates or a platter and top with the chicken. Drizzle with the remaining dressing and garnish with the grilled lemon wedges.
GREEK-STYLE GRILLED CHICKEN WITH OREGANO, GARLIC, LEMON, AND OLIVE OIL RECIPE
A whole chicken gets the Greek treatment with a simple marinade of olive oil and lemon along with plenty of garlic and oregano. The key to the juiciest meat and crispest skin? Butterflying the chicken and cooking it low and slow before finishing with a sear to crisp up the skin.

Steps:
- Set up a grill for cooking with indirect heat. If using a charcoal grill, build the coals on one side only. If using a gas grill, heat one side only. Place a heavy-bottomed enameled cast-iron pan over the direct heat side of the grill and add the olive oil.
- Add the onions, fennel and garlic with a pinch of salt and allow to begin to soften, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in the tomato paste and cook until rusty, 2 to 3 minutes.
- Deglaze the pan with 1 cup water, scraping the bottom for any brown bits. Add all of the greens and season with salt and pepper.
- Cover the pan with a lid.
- Move the pan to the indirect-heat side of the grill, then close the lid and cook until the greens are wilted, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove from the grill and stir in the dill and lemon juice. Serve.
