Ingredients

Units Scale

  • 2 zucchinis, sliced into 1/2-inch rounds
  • 1 lb whole button mushrooms, cleaned

  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 teaspoons garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Marinate: In a large bowl, combine chicken wings with 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Mix well to coat and let sit for 15 minutes.

  3. Grill Chicken: Preheat grill to medium heat. Place chicken wings on the grill and cook for about 10 minutes on each side or until fully cooked through and nicely charred.

  5. Serve: Remove everything from the grill, plate, and serve with optional lemon wedges.

Notes

For wings with a bit of a kick, consider adding a touch of cayenne pepper to your marinade. Grilling baskets can make handling the veggies even easier, preventing smaller pieces from falling through the grates. When paired with a cool, crisp summer salad or a tangy dipping sauce, these wings and veggies truly shine. For drink pairings, consider a zesty lemonade or a cold craft beer. And remember, always let your wings sit a few minutes after grilling – it locks in the juicy goodness. Enjoy!
