Preparation
Mise en place
Heat the BBQ on high, making sure to oil the grill first. Thinly slice the roasted pepper lengthwise. Quarter the zucchini lengthwise. In a large bowl, combine the zucchini, ½ the vinegar, ½ the garlic, 1 tbsp oil (double for 4 portions) and ⅓ of the spices.
Grill the chicken
Pat the chicken* dry with paper towel; season with the remaining spices and S&P. Add to the BBQ and grill, 6 to 8 min. per side, until cooked through. Transfer to a cutting board and let rest for 5 min. before slicing against the grain.
Grill the zucchini
Meanwhile, add the zucchini to the BBQ and grill, turning occasionally, 2 to 3 min. per side, until browned and tender. Transfer to a cutting board. Once cool enough, cut crosswise into 1-inch pieces. Reserve the bowl.
Make the salad
In the reserved bowl, combine the remaining vinegar and garlic, 2 tbsp oil (double for 4 portions) and S&P. Add the baby greens, roasted pepper, zucchini and cheese.
Plate your dish
Divide the salad between your bowls. Top with the chicken. Bon appétit!
