Ingredients
Chicken
- 1 1/4 pounds boneless skinless chicken thighs or breasts
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
Basil Dressing
- 1/2 cup packed basil leaves
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 shallot about 1/4 cup diced
- 2 tablespoons champagne vinegar
- 1 clove grated garlic about 1/2 teaspoon
- 2 teaspoons honey
- Pinch of red pepper flakes optional
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat grill to 400° F then clean and oil the grates. Combine the smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt and pepper and then sprinkle it evenly all over the chicken. Place the chicken on the grill grates and cook for 5-6 minutes. Flip the chicken over and continue to cook until the internal temperature is 165° F. Remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest while you make the basil dressing.
- Add all of the ingredients for the basil dressing to a high speed or regular blender. Purée until smooth. Scrape down the sides of the blender and purée again. Taste for seasoning then pour the dressing into a jar or bowl. Serve the dressing drizzled on top of the chicken or on the side for dipping.
