  • (4 tbsp) olive oil
  • (2) garlic cloves

  • (1 tbsp) fresh thyme
  • (1 tsp) salt
  • (1/2 tsp) black pepper
  • (1) bell pepper
  • (1) zucchini
  • (1) red onion
  • (1 cup) cherry tomatoes

Instructions

  1. 1

    In a bowl, combine the juice of (2) lemons, (4 tbsp) olive oil, (2 cloves) minced garlic, (1 tbsp) chopped fresh rosemary, (1 tbsp) chopped fresh thyme, (1 tsp) salt, and (1/2 tsp) black pepper to create the marinade.

  2. 2

    Add (4) chicken thighs to the marinade, ensuring they are well coated. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.

  3. 3

    While the chicken is marinating, prepare the vegetables. Cut (1) bell pepper into strips, (1) zucchini into rounds, and (1) red onion into wedges. Halve (1 cup) cherry tomatoes.

  4. 4

    Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Remove the chicken from the marinade and discard the excess.

  5. 5

    Place the marinated chicken thighs on the grill and cook for about 6-7 minutes per side or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75 °C).

  6. 6

    While the chicken is grilling, toss the prepared vegetables in (1 tbsp) olive oil, (1/2 tsp) salt, and (1/4 tsp) black pepper in a separate bowl.

  7. 7

    Add the seasoned vegetables to the grill alongside the chicken and grill for about 5-7 minutes, turning occasionally until they are tender and slightly charred.

  8. 8

    Once cooked, remove the chicken and vegetables from the grill and let the chicken rest for a few minutes before serving.
