Feta Brined Grilled Chicken

Chicken thighs are enriched by a salty, savory feta brine keeping the meat moist and using up everything your feta container has to offer.

Ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup feta brine (from 1 [14-ounce] container) (such as valbreso)
  • 1 small shallot, thinly sliced (about 1/4 cup)
  • zest and juice of 1 small lemon
  • 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • 2 teaspoons honey
  • 2 medium garlic cloves, minced or grated (about 1 teaspoon)
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano, or 1 tablespoon dried rosemary
  • 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper
  • 2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs (about 8 thighs)
  • cooking spray
  • kosher salt

Direction

  1. Stir together feta brine, shallot, lemon zest and juice, oil, honey, garlic, oregano, and crushed red pepper with a fork in a gallon-size ziplock plastic bag. Add chicken to marinade; toss to fully coat. Seal bag, and refrigerate at least 4 hours or up to 24 hours, turning occasionally.
  2. Build a medium-hot fire in a charcoal grill, or preheat a gas grill to medium-high (450°F to 500°F). Remove chicken from bag; scrape off excess marinade. Spray chicken with cooking spray; grill, uncovered, on well-oiled grates, flipping occasionally, until lightly charred and cooked through, 10 to 12 minutes. Transfer to a plate; let rest 5 minutes. Season to taste with salt. Chop into large pieces; serve with your favorite salad.

Shrimp and grits is a very simple recipe, but make sure you have everything ready before you start cooking the shrimp.

To make things even easier, you can make the grits a bit ahead since they stay hot a very long time.
