  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Spray grill with cooking spray and heat grill to medium-high heat. Thoroughly rinse any fresh produce and pat dry.

    Place zucchini, seasoning blend, and butter in provided grill bag. Roll open end of bag to seal. Shake gently to mix.

    Snap woody ends off asparagus. Drizzle with 1 tsp. olive oil, and season with 1/4 tsp. salt and a pinch of pepper.

    If using ribeye, follow same instructions.

    Grill Chicken and Vegetables

    Place grill bag on hot grill and cook until zucchini is softened, 14-16 minutes. Do not close grill; heat from a closed grill will cause grill bag window to melt.

    While grill bag cooks, place chicken on hot grill and cook until chicken reaches a minimum internal temperature of 165 degrees, 5-7 minutes per side.

    While chicken cooks, place asparagus on hot grill and cook until charred, 10-12 minutes, flipping once halfway through.

    If using ribeye, place on hot grill and cook until ribeye reaches a minimum internal temperature of 145 degrees, 4-6 minutes per side.

  3. 3

    Finish the Dish

    For a Rainy Day...

    If cooking indoors, preheat oven to 400 degrees. Prepare a baking sheet with foil and cooking spray. Thoroughly rinse any fresh produce and pat dry. Pat chicken dry, and season both sides with a pinch of salt and pepper. Place zucchini on prepared baking sheet and toss with 1 tsp. olive oil and seasoning blend. Massage oil and seasoning into zucchini, and spread into a single layer on one half of sheet. Top with butter. Place asparagus on empty half of baking sheet and toss with 1 tsp. olive oil, 1/4 tsp. salt, and a pinch of pepper. Spread into a single layer on their side. Roast in hot oven until vegetables are tender, 10-12 minutes. While vegetables roast, place a medium non-stick pan over medium heat and add 1 tsp. olive oil. Add chicken to hot pan and cook until browned and chicken reaches a minimum internal temperature of 165 degrees, 5-7 minutes per side.
