GRILLED ORANGE CHICKEN THIGHS
This orangey chicken was the first meal I served my future husband. I chose it because it's easy, but he thought it was amazing and gobbled it up. We were married three months later, so I guess it worked. -Leah Harvath, Heber City, Utah

Steps:
- Combine coconut aminos, orange juice, avocado oil, ginger, and chile-garlic paste in a gallon-sized resealable bag. Season marinade with salt and pepper and add chicken pieces. Gently squeeze the sides of the bag, coating all of the chicken with the marinade. Squeeze out as much air as possible, seal, and spread out chicken pieces in a single layer inside the bag.
- Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight, turning the bag a few times during that time.
- Drain marinade into a small saucepan and add pineapple juice. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat and boil until marinade has reduced to 1/2 cup, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove from heat and allow to cool.
- Meanwhile, alternately thread each skewer with chicken, bell pepper, onion, zucchini, and pineapple. Repeat until each skewer is filled.
- Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
- Set skewers on the hot grill grate. Brush with reduced marinade, reduce heat to medium, close the lid, and grill 4 to 5 minutes. Turn and brush with marinade reduction. Monitor for flare-ups, and move skewers as necessary to manage any flames. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
- Serve skewers over hot cooked rice.

Tips:
- Use a flavorful marinade: The orange-BBQ marinade in this recipe is a great way to add flavor to the chicken. You can also try other marinades, such as a honey-mustard marinade or a lemon-herb marinade.
- Grill the chicken over medium heat: This will help to prevent the chicken from drying out. You can also cook the chicken in a preheated oven at 375 degrees Fahrenheit for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through.
- Grill the vegetables over high heat: This will help to caramelize the vegetables and give them a slightly smoky flavor. You can also roast the vegetables in a preheated oven at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for 20-25 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender.
- Serve the chicken and vegetables with your favorite sides: Some popular sides for this dish include rice, mashed potatoes, or a salad.
Conclusion:
This orange-BBQ chicken with grilled vegetables is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a summer cookout. The chicken is juicy and flavorful, and the vegetables are grilled to perfection. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
