Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (around 375-400°F).
In a small bowl, mix together 2 tablespoons of olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper to create a marinade for the chicken.
Brush the chicken breasts with the marinade on both sides, ensuring even coating.
Slice the zucchini, yellow squash, and red bell pepper into 1/2-inch thick pieces. Cut the red onion into wedges.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the vegetables (zucchini, yellow squash, red bell pepper, red onion, and cherry tomatoes) with the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil, balsamic vinegar, honey, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Toss to coat evenly.
Place the chicken breasts on the grill. Cook for 6-8 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
While grilling the chicken, arrange the vegetables on the grill using a vegetable grilling basket or skewers. Cook the vegetables for about 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until they are tender and slightly charred.
Remove both the chicken and vegetables from the grill and let the chicken rest for 5 minutes.
Serve the grilled chicken alongside the summer vegetables. Garnish with freshly torn basil leaves before serving.
