GRILLED ZA'ATAR CHICKEN



Grilled Za'atar Chicken image

Most recipes using za'atar seasoning often incorporate fresh herbs which give the seasoning a green color. I chose to use dry herbs to give a consistent flavor. Most companies now make za'atar seasoning so feel free to use 2 tablespoons za'atar seasoning from Savory Spice Shop® (or other purveyor) or create your own.

Time 45m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 teaspoons ground cumin
1 ½ teaspoons sumac powder
1 teaspoon toasted sesame seeds
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon dried thyme
¼ teaspoon oregano
¼ teaspoon dried marjoram
¼ cup grapeseed oil
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, butterflied
nonstick cooking spray

Steps:

  • Combine cumin, sumac powder, sesame seeds, salt, thyme, oregano, and marjoram in a 1-gallon resealable plastic bag. Add grapeseed oil and lemon juice; mix to combine. Add chicken breast, mix with seasoning, and marinate for 30 minutes.
  • Spray the grate of the grill with cooking spray, and preheat the grill to 500 degrees F (260 degrees C).
  • Grill chicken breasts, flipping halfway, until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 7 to 8 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

Time 1h10m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 20

2 tablespoons lemon juice
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons za'atar seasoning
1 clove garlic, minced
1 teaspoon kosher salt
½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
½ pound chicken tenders
6 cups torn, bite-sized romaine lettuce
1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
1 green bell pepper, diced
1 cucumber, peeled and diced
½ cup shredded carrot
1 lemon, zested and juiced
4 tablespoons tahini
4 tablespoons water, or more as needed
2 cloves garlic
1 dried date, minced
salt and ground black pepper to taste
1 tablespoon chopped fresh chives
1 tablespoon chopped fresh mint

Steps:

  • Mix 2 tablespoons lemon juice, olive oil, za'atar, garlic, salt, and pepper together in a gallon-sized plastic zip-top bag. Add chicken tenders and refrigerate, turning occasionally, 30 minutes to 12 hours.
  • Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
  • Place chicken tenders on the grate, reduce heat to medium, and cover. Grill until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of a tender registers 165 degrees F (74 degrees C), 4 to 5 minutes per side.
  • Remove chicken from grill and let rest. Prepare the salad in the meantime; place romaine pieces in a large bowl and add tomatoes, bell pepper, cucumber, and carrot.
  • Combine lemon zest and juice, tahini, water, garlic, and date in the bowl of a mini food processor or a blender. Pulse several times, adding water by tablespoons if necessary, until desired consistency is achieved. Season with salt and pepper. Pour dressing into the salad bowl and toss.
  • Divide salad between plates. Slice each chicken tender crosswise into 1/4-inch slices and place over the salads. Garnish with chives and mint.
