Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1.5 lb boneless skinless chicken thighs
  • 2 tbsp low-sodium soy sauce
  • 1.5 tbsp honey
  • 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • 4 cloves garlic finely grated
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 4 medium zucchini sliced lengthwise
  • 1/2 tsp kosher salt
  • 1 tbsp chopped fresh parsley

Method
 

  1. Whisk together soy sauce, honey, apple cider vinegar, grated garlic, black pepper, and olive oil in a bowl until fully combined.
  2. Place the chicken thighs in a resealable bag and pour in the marinade.
  3. Seal the bag and massage gently to coat the chicken evenly.
  4. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to penetrate the meat.
  5. Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.
  6. Remove the chicken from the marinade and allow excess liquid to drip off.
  7. Lightly brush the zucchini slices with olive oil and sprinkle with salt.
  8. Place the chicken thighs on the hot grill and cook until deep golden grill marks appear.
  9. Flip the chicken and continue grilling until the meat reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
  10. Add the zucchini to the grill and cook until tender with light char marks and a slightly smoky aroma.
  11. Transfer the chicken and zucchini to a serving platter.
  12. Sprinkle with fresh parsley before serving.
  13. Allow the chicken to rest for a few minutes so the juices redistribute evenly.
