Let's Make It
- In a large bowl or zip-top bag, whisk together orange juice, lime zest and juice, olive oil, Dijon, honey, and all spices.
- Add chicken and coat well. Marinate in the fridge for 30 minutes to 4 hours.
- While the chicken is marinating I will boil the corn and toss it on the grill to get the char (burnt) ends that we all love!
- Heat grill to medium-high. Grill chicken for 5–7 minutes per side or until internal temp hits 165°F.
- In the meantime, make the corn salad- recipe below!
- Let rest 5 minutes before slicing or serving whole.
- Arrange chicken family-style on a platter. Spoon Summer Grilled Corn Salad right over the top and serve!
