Grilled Chicken Thighs With Tomatoes

Grilled Chicken Thighs With Tomatoes
Kate Sears for The New York Times. Food Stylist: Chris Lanier.

Recipe by Clare de Boer | Total time: 45 minutes

In this elegant, easy summer meal, grilled chicken is marinated in a vinaigrette, infused with herbes de Provence, that tenderizes and seasons the thighs. Another simple mustard vinaigrette dresses the tomatoes after they come off the grill, as do the flavorful juices from the chicken. Slashing the thighs through to the bone encourages heat to penetrate the meat, so your chicken will be cooked through before the skin burns. Have fun developing a crust: once the chicken releases from the grill, rotate it repeatedly for an even, chestnut char.
