Grilled Chicken Breasts & Zucchini Wedges
with Bocconcini, Walnuts & Pesto Vinaigrette
Bouncy, herby, summery goodness, all on one plate. A clean Italian flavour profile and Clean15 considerations come together charmingly in this simple affair. Chicken breasts and thick-cut wedges of zucchini take a moment over flames, until they’re tender-cooked and oh-so juicy. Dress things up with a clever basil pesto and red wine vinaigrette and an inventive garnish that incorporates morsels of bocconcini for softness and walnuts for crunch.

Preparation

Mise en place
Heat the BBQ on high, making sure to oil the grill first. Quarter the bocconcini. Quarter the zucchini lengthwise, then halve crosswise; toss with 1 tbsp olive oil (double for 4 portions) and S&P.

Grill the chicken
Pat the chicken* dry with paper towel; season with ⅔ of the spices and S&P. Grill on the BBQ (or in a grill pan heated with a drizzle of oil on medium-high, partially covered), 6 to 8 min. per side, until cooked through. Transfer to a cutting board and let rest for 5 min. before slicing against the grain.

Grill the zucchini
Meanwhile, grill the zucchini on the BBQ (or in a second grill pan heated on medium-high), turning occasionally, 4 to 6 min., until tender.

Make the vinaigrette & nut garnish
In a medium bowl, combine the pesto, vinegar, remaining spices and 2 tbsp olive oil (double for 4 portions). In a small bowl, combine ⅔ of the vinaigrette, the bocconcini, walnuts and S&P.

Plate your dish
Divide the chicken and zucchini between your plates. Top with the nut garnish. Drizzle with the remaining vinaigrette. Bon appétit!
