DIRECTIONS

  1. In a bowl combine chicken thighs, 1 tsp of paprika and 1 tsp of garlic powder. S&P to taste and generously splash with olive oil. Mix well until chicken is coated in spices. Cover and set aside.

  2. While the chicken marinades, cube the watermelon, slice red onion and cucumbers, and chop the mint finely.

  4. Over medium high, heat a splash of olive oil in a cast or a grill pan. Place the chicken thighs in the pen opening the meat up at the slit. Grill the chicken breasts for about 4-5 minutes per side or until cooked through. Remove from the pan and let them rest for a few minutes.

The combination of grilled chicken, sweet watermelon, tangy feta cheese, and crunchy almonds creates a delightful blend of flavors and textures. The mixed salad greens provide essential leafy greens to the dish.
