Grilled Chicken And Corn With Tartar Butter Recipes

GRILLED CHICKEN AND CORN WITH TARTAR BUTTER

Steps:

• Heat grill to medium-high and grease grates. (Alternatively, heat a cast-iron grill pan over medium-high and lightly grease.)
• In a medium bowl, combine chicken and 2 tablespoons olive oil, season with salt and pepper, and toss to evenly coat. Rub corn and okra with the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Skewer okra or place in a grill basket to prevent them from falling through the grates during cooking.
• Working in batches if needed, grill chicken, corn and okra, turning occasionally, until chicken is nicely charred and cooked through and vegetables are tender, about 5 minutes for the okra and 10 to 12 minutes for the chicken and corn.
• Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, combine butter, pickles, capers and parsley. Season with salt and pepper, and mix well. Once okra is done, toss with 2 tablespoons of the tartar butter while warm.
• Divide chicken and vegetables among plates. Slather corn with some of the tartar butter. Serve with lemon wedges and extra tartar butter on the side.

GRILLED CHICKEN THIGHS WITH CHARRED CORN AND SUMMER SQUASH

Steps:

• Heat grill to high. In a shallow baking dish, whisk together lemon zest and juice, garlic, shallot, and olive oil. Season with salt and pepper. Stir in chopped herbs.
• Season both sides of chicken with salt and pepper; drizzle lightly with olive oil. Brush grates with vegetable oil. Grill chicken, turning once, until charred in places and a thermometer inserted into thickest parts registers 160°F, 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer to dish and turn to coat with lemon mixture; tent with foil. Cover grill; return to medium-high heat.
• Drizzle vegetables lightly with olive oil; toss to coat. Season with salt and pepper. Grill, turning occasionally, until vegetables are charred in places and squash is crisp-tender, 6 to 8 minutes. Transfer to a plate. Let corn cool slightly, then strip kernels from cobs and transfer to a serving platter with squash, cheese, and herb leaves. Top with chicken; spoon more lemon mixture over top, if desired.

GRILLED CHICKEN WITH TOMATOES AND CORN

Steps:

• Heat the grill to medium-high. In a medium bowl, coat the chicken with 2 tablespoons olive oil, the chili powder and 1/2 teaspoon salt; set aside. (You can do this step up to 1 day ahead; refrigerate and bring to room temperature before cooking.)
• On a large platter, layer the tomatoes, corn kernels, red onion and fresh oregano (if using). Season with 3/4 teaspoon salt and drizzle with the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil.
• When ready to grill, clean the grates with a grill brush, then lightly grease the grates. Grill the chicken until browned and cooked through, and it releases easily from the grates, 5 to 7 minutes per side. (If flare-ups occur, move the chicken to an area of the grill with smaller flames underneath. For a gas grill, close the lid between flips, listening and peeking occasionally for flare-ups.)
• Transfer the chicken to the platter. Let rest for 5 to 20 minutes before serving.
