Cooking Steps
- Before starting, wash and dry all produce. Lightly oil the grill.
While you prep, preheat the grill to medium-high (approx. 500°F). - Halve zucchini.
- Quarter pepper, then core.
- Husk corn.
- Cut sweet potatoes into 1/2-inch rounds.
- Roughtly chop cilantro.
- Zest lime, then cut into wedges.
- To a small bowl, add lime zest and mayo. Stir to combine, then set aside.
- To a large bowl, add sweet potatoes, corn, zucchini and pepper. Drizzle with 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil and season with salt and pepper. Toss to combine, then set aside.
- To another small bowl, add maple syrup and 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp) chipotle powder. Stir to combine.
- Pat chicken dry with paper towels. Season with salt and pepper.
- Brush chicken with half the lime mayo, then wrap 2 bacon strips around each piece of chicken. (TIP: Overlapping strips by 1 inch helps keep bacon on chicken!)
- Place chicken on a baking sheet, then set aside.
- Add corn to one side of the grill. Close lid and grill 8-10 min, turning occasionally, until tender and grill-marked, 8-10 min.
- Add peppers and zucchini to the other side of the grill. Close lid and grill 9-12 min, flipping once, until veggies are tender-crisp.
- Once cooked, transfer veggies to a clean baking sheet. Cover to keep warm.
- Add chicken to one side of the grill. Reduce heat to medium. Close lid and grill 6-8 min per side, flipping once, until chicken is cooked through.**
- Add sweet potatoes to the other side of the grill. Close lid and grill 14-16 min, flipping once, until grill-marked and tender.
- Brush maple-chipotle sauce over chicken. Flip chicken, then brush other side with sauce. Grill 30 sec, until sauce caramelizes. Flip and repeat on other side. (NOTE: Repeat with any extra sauce, if you like.)
- Transfer to the baking sheet with veggies. Cover to keep warm.
- Spread remaining lime mayo all over corn. Sprinkle a pinch of chipotle powder over corn, if you like.
- Top corn with feta and half the cilantro.
- Slice zucchini and peppers.
- Divide chicken, veggies and corn between plates.
- Sprinkle remaining cilantro over top.
