Cooking Steps

Cook fusilli
1
  • Before starting, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil (use same for 4 servings). 
  • Wash and dry all produce.
  • Lightly oil the grill. While you prep, preheat the grill to medium (approx. 400°F).
  • To the boiling water, add fusilli. Cook for 10-12 min, until tender but still firm to the bite.
  • Reserve 1/4 cup (1/2 cup) pasta water.
  • Strain fusilli, then return to the pot, off heat. Stir in garlic spread. Cover, then set aside.
Prep and make caprese salad
2
  • Husk corn, then halve crosswise.
  • Halve tomatoes.
  • Strip basil leaves from stems, then thinly slice.
  • Cut or tear bocconcini into quarters. To a medium bowl, add bocconcini, tomatoes, basil, half the Italian Herb Spice Blend and 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) olive oil. Season with salt and pepper. Stir to combine. Set aside. 
Prep chicken
3
  • Pat chicken dry with paper towels.
  • Carefully slice into the centre of each chicken breast, parallel to the cutting board, leaving 1/2 inch intact on the other end.
  • Open up chicken like a book. To a plate, add chicken and 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil. Season both sides with remaining Italian Herb Spice Blend, salt and pepper. Flip to coat.
  • Head to the grill with chicken, corn, caprese salad and a clean plate. 
Grill corn and chicken
4
  • Add corn to one side of grill. Close lid and grill for 5-7 min, flipping once or twice, until tender-crisp.
  • To other side of grill, add chicken. Close lid and grill for 4-5 min. 
Finish chicken
5
  • Flip chicken. 
  • Spoon 2 heaping tablespoons of caprese salad over each chicken breast. Close lid and grill for 4-5 min until cheese has melted and chicken is cooked through.**
  • Once cooked, place corn and chicken on the clean plate.
Finish and serve
