CHICKEN & POTATO FIESTA GRILL

4 servings
Preparation Time: 25 Minutes
Cooking Time: 40 Minutes

INGREDIENTS

• 1/2 cup prepared Italian dressing
• 2 tablespoons lime juice
• 1 tablespoon chili powder
• 4 whole chicken legs with thighs
• 1 1/3 pounds (4 medium) potatoes, cut into 1¼-inch cubes
• 2 tablespoons water
• 1 red bell pepper, cut into 1½-inch pieces
• 2 medium zucchini, cut into 3/4-inch thick slices
• 4 to 8 flour or corn tortillas, warmed

• Prepared salsa (optional)
 

DIRECTIONS.

In small bowl, combine marinade ingredients; remove 1/4 cup and combine with chicken in resealable plastic bag.

Turn to coat; marinate in refrigerator 30 minutes or up to 2 hours, turning occasionally.

Meanwhile, in microwave-safe dish, combine potatoes and water.

Cover and microwave on HIGH 9 to 10 minutes or until just tender; cool.

When potatoes are cool enough to handle, alternately thread with bell pepper and zucchini onto eight 10 to 12-inch skewers; brush with remaining marinade.

Remove chicken from plastic bag; discard marinade from chicken.

Grill chicken over medium to medium-low coals 30 to 40 minutes or until juices run clear, turning occasionally.

About 10 minutes before chicken is done, add vegetables to grid; reserve marinade.

Grill until tender and lightly browned, turning and basting occasionally with reserved vegetable marinade.

Serve chicken and vegetables with tortillas and salsa, if desired.
