Ingredients:
1 bottle of Italian Dressing
8 skin on, bone-in chicken thighs
1 bunch of carrots
1 bunch of asparagus
2 lbs. of baby potatoes
1 large size red onions cut into 1/8’s
8-10 Fresh herb leaves such as oregano, parsley, and mint
2 teaspoons of salt
Directions:
- Rub both sides of the chicken thighs with 1/3 cup of Italian Dressing .
- Place the chicken thighs on a tray and cover the tray with plastic wrap.
- Keep the chicken thighs in the fridge a minimum of 2, and a maximum of 12 hours.
- When you are ready to grill, take the chicken thighs out of the fridge and let it sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes.
- Meanwhile place baby potatoes in a large pan, add cold water to cover by about an inch and season with 2 teaspoons of salt. Bring to a boil, lower the heat, and simmer until baby potatoes are softened – do not cook them entirely – about 4 to 8 minutes depending on their size.
- Drain the potatoes and drizzle 2 tablespoons of Italian Dressing on them while they are still hot.
- Drizzle 1-2 tablespoons of Italian Dressing on the rest of the vegetables which are asparagus, sliced onions, and carrots.
- Preheat the grill to medium-high (about 400 degrees Fahrenheit) and place the chicken thighs skin-side down. Cook about 10-15 minutes.
- Lower the grill temperature to medium-low (about 350 degrees Fahrenheit). Turn the chicken and cook another 10-15 minutes.
- Always use a meat thermometer to check for proper temperature of the chicken, which needs to be 165-170 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Place the carrots, asparagus, and onions over the grill and cook each side of the vegetables about 3-5 minutes until they are softened over medium-low.
- Place the potatoes over the grill and cook 4-7 minutes each side until they are fork tender also over medium-low.
- Place the grilled chicken thighs and vegetables on a large serving platter, garnish with fresh herb leaves, and drizzle with 2-3 tablespoons of Italian Dressing .
