How To Make This Chicken

Step 1: Marinate the Chicken

Paprika, onion powder, garlic powder, salt, and olive oil. Let it hang out while you prep the other stuff.

Step 2: Make a Cucumber Tomato Salad

Cucumbers, tomatoes, red onion, and a tiny bit of olive oil, salt, and vinegar.

Step 3: Make Pepperoncini Garlic Butter Sauce

Garlic, melted butter, pepperoncini brine, and some pepperoncini peppers get mixed up to make a sauce.

Step 4: Grill the Chicken

I usually use a grill pan because I’m too lazy to get my grill out. But an actual grill (or a regular skillet) will work perfectly.

Step 5: Assemble

This is the fun part! Hummus goes first, then tomato cucumber salad, then chicken and sauce. Finish it off with feta and chives!

Lindsay’s Notes

Grilled marinated chicken, tomato cucumber salad, feta, hummus, and a pepperoncini garlic butter sauce. OH BABY, I love this recipe! I got the idea for this from Sara Tane – got to her site randomly via Threads (okay Threads! coming in clutch with recipe inspo!) and immediately knew it was going to be a banger. This particular grilled marinated chicken is so simple (just dry spices and olive oil) and yet somehow so good. I honestly think the biggest challenge of this recipe is trying not to eat all of the chicken before it makes its way onto the plate. And as if that wasn’t enough, get it all laced up with some freshly grated garlic, melted butter, and pepperoncini brine and you’ve got one killer combo.
