• 1/2 grapefruit, juice and zest
• 1/2 bunch parsley, torn
• 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil, plus more
• LENTIL-CITRUS SALAD

Preparation

Step 1

•Combine ingredients for the citrus marinade in a baking dish. Place the
chicken in the dish and toss to coat. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
•Preheat grill to medium heat. Meanwhile, bring the marinated chicken to room
temperature.
•Wipe excess marinade ingredients off the chicken and season on all sides with
salt and pepper. Place the chicken thighs on the grill skin-side-down. Cook
without moving for 6 minutes. Flip the chicken thighs to the other side and
cook for another 8 minutes. Serve grilled chicken with herb-lentil salad.

Lentil-Citrus Salad:
In a medium-sized pot, cover the lentils with 4 cups water and bring to a boil.
Reduce heat and simmer and cook until lentils are tender, about 15 to 25
minutes. Drain lentils and transfer to a large bowl.
