Ingredients

• 4 pieces Chicken breasts
• 1 pound Asparagus
• 3 tablespoons Olive oil
• 3 tablespoons Honey
• 3 tablespoons Balsamic vinegar
• 2 cloves Garlic
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 1 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 teaspoon Paprika
• 1 whole Lemon
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.

Step 2

In a small bowl, mix 2 tablespoons of olive oil, honey, balsamic vinegar, minced garlic, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper to create the glaze. Set aside.

Step 3

Season the chicken breasts with paprika, the remaining salt, and pepper. Drizzle 1 tablespoon of olive oil over the chicken and rub it in.

Step 4

Snap off the tough ends of the asparagus. Drizzle 1 tablespoon of olive oil over the asparagus and toss to coat. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.

Step 5

Place the chicken breasts on the preheated grill. Cook for 6-8 minutes per side, flipping once, until fully cooked (internal temperature of 165°F or 75°C). During the last 2 minutes of cooking, brush the honey balsamic glaze generously over each chicken breast.

Step 6

While the chicken is grilling, place the asparagus on the grill grates perpendicular to the bars to prevent them from falling through. Grill for 2-3 minutes per side until tender-crisp and slightly charred.

Step 7

Remove the chicken and asparagus from the grill. Let the chicken rest for 3-5 minutes before serving.

Step 8

Squeeze fresh lemon juice over the grilled asparagus for extra brightness.

Step 9

Serve the grilled chicken breasts alongside the asparagus and garnish with freshly chopped parsley.
