So do you ever get tired of grilling chicken and want to add a summer taste to it? Well, this post is for you! Tonight I did grilled chicken with a tomato and olive relish and you will have complete meal done within 30 minutes!
Let’s cook!
Grilled Chicken with Tomato and Olive Relish
- 2 boneless, skinless chicken breast
- 1 teaspoon ground fennel seed
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon ground pepper
- olive oil
- 3/4 cup diced tomaotes
- 1/4 cup diced celery with light green leaves
- 1/4 cup diced black olives
- 1/4 cup diced green olives
- 2 teaspoons minced fresh thyme
- 1/2 lemon, juiced
Preparation:
- Preheat grill on high. In a small bowl combine fennel, garlic powder, salt and pepper.
- Add the chicken to the bowl and coat the chicken well and let rest (I forgot to take a picture of this).
- In a large bowl add tomatoes, celery, green and black olives, 2 tablespoons olive oil, thyme, salt and pepper.
- Mix well and let rest.
- Place the chicken on the grill and cook with the lid closed as much as possible. I cooked the chicken 5 minutes per side.
- Remove from the grill and let rest for 5 minutes.
- Time to plate! For this meal I made white rice and sweet peas. To complete the main dish, spoon the relish over the chicken and pour some of the lemon juice on top before serving.
Happy Cooking!
