Categories     main-dish

Time 1h10m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 21

3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon sumac
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 teaspoon granulated garlic
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Zest and juice of 1 lemon
1 1/2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs
2 medium eggplants, stems on, cut in half lengthwise
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling
1 teaspoon sumac
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
One 8.8-ounce package store-bought naan bread
1 cup Greek yogurt
3 tablespoons tahini
2 tablespoons minced fresh parsley
1 tablespoon honey, plus more for drizzling
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
1/4 teaspoon cumin
Juice from 1/2 lemon plus remaining half cut into wedges
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Fresh mint and parsley leaves, for garnish

Steps:

  • For the chicken: Combine the olive oil, sumac, salt, granulated garlic, pepper and lemon zest and juice in a large shallow dish or a resealable plastic bag. Add chicken thighs and mix to coat with the marinade. Refrigerate at least 30 minutes or up to overnight.
  • For the eggplant and naan: Use a paring knife to make crosshatch marks on the flesh side of each eggplant half. Drizzle both sides of the eggplant with oil and sprinkle with sumac, salt and pepper.
  • Preheat a grill for cooking over direct and indirect medium-high heat. Remove chicken from marinade and grill, flipping once, until cooked through, 5 to 7 minutes on each side.
  • Meanwhile, grill the eggplant, starting flesh-side down, for 5 minutes. Flip and cook 5 minutes more, then move to indirect heat to cook until tender, an 5 additional minutes.
  • Turn one of the burners to high heat. Lightly brush both sides of naan bread with olive oil and grill over high heat, flipping frequently, until slightly charred and warmed through, 3 to 5 minutes total.
  • For the yogurt tahini sauce: Whisk together the yogurt, tahini, parsley, honey, olive oil, cumin and lemon juice in a bowl, then season with salt and pepper.
  • Arrange chicken and eggplant on a platter. Drizzle with honey and olive oil. Top with fresh mint and parsley leaves. Serve with yogurt tahini sauce and grilled naan bread on the side.

GRILLED CHICKEN TENDERS



Grilled Chicken Tenders image

Grilled chicken tenders that are moist and juicy every time! The secret is a fast, flavorful marinade. Ready in minutes and perfect for healthy dinners and meal prep.

Provided by Erin Clarke / Well Plated

Categories     Main Course

Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 pound chicken tenders (you also can use boneless, skinless chicken breasts sliced into 1-inch strips)
1/4 cup water
2 tablespoons low sodium soy sauce
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar (or lemon juice)
1 tablespoon honey
1 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
Vegetable oil (for grilling)

Steps:

  • In a small bowl or larger liquid measuring cup, whisk together the water, soy sauce, vinegar, honey, pepper, and salt. Transfer mixture to a 1-gallon ziptop bag (or if you prefer to marinate the chicken directly in the bowl, whisk the ingredients together in a mixing bowl just large enough to hold the chicken snugly so that it is well submerged).
  • Add the chicken to the bag and seal, gently pressing out as much air from the bag as possible. Turn and "squish" the bag so that the chicken is evenly distributed and all of the pieces are coated. Place the bag in a shallow dish to catch any accidental drips then place in the refrigerator to marinate. (If you are using a bowl, add the chicken to the bowl, toss to coat in the marinade, then cover the bowl and place in the refrigerator). Marinate the chicken in the refrigerator for 30 minutes or up to 8 hours.
  • When ready to grill, remove the chicken from the refrigerator. Preheat an outdoor grill or indoor grill pan to medium heat (about 375 degrees F). Oil the grill, then place the chicken tenders on the grill in a single layer without overlapping them, shaking off any excess marinade (discard the bag and remaining marinade). Cook for 3 to 4 minutes on each side, until the juices run clear and the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees F on an instant read thermometer.
  • Transfer the chicken tenders to a plate or cutting board. Cover with foil and let rest for 2 to 3 minutes to allow the juices to reincorporate.
