Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 1 chicken (3 1/2–4-pounds, broken down into 6-8 pieces)
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 2 garlic cloves (chopped)
  • 1/2 cup finely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
  • 2 teaspoons ground cumin
  • 2 teaspoons paprika
  • 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
  • Kosher salt (freshly ground pepper)
  • 1 medium red onion (sliced into ½-inch-thick rings)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil (divided, plus more for drizzling)
  • Kosher salt (freshly ground pepper)
  • 3 bunches scallions (trimmed)
  • 2 ripe avocados (halved, pitted)
  • Flaky sea salt
  • Lime wedges (for serving)
  • 1 recipe cilantro vinaigrette

Instruction

  • Combine the chicken, oil, garlic, parsley, cumin, paprika, red pepper flakes, salt and pepper in a zip top plastic bag. Refrigerate for 2 hours.
  • Prepare grill for high / indirect heat. Remove chicken from marinade, place chicken, skin side down, over indirect heat, and grill, covered, until skin is golden and crisp, 10-15 minutes, rotating halfway through. Remove chicken and set aside.
  • Prepare the grill for medium-high heat. Combine onion and ½ tablespoon of oil on a baking sheet, season with kosher salt and pepper, and toss to coat. Grill until softened and slightly charred in spots, about 4 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate.
  • Meanwhile, combine scallions and ½ tablespoon of oil on same baking sheet, season with kosher salt and pepper, and toss to coat. Grill, turning often, until softened and slightly charred in spots, about 2 minutes. Transfer to plate with onion.
  • Rub cut sides of avocados with 1 tablespoon oil and grill the avocados, cut side down, until charred, about 30 seconds. Transfer to a board with chicken, onion and scallions. Drizzle avocados with oil, season with sea salt, and sprinkle with lime wedges for squeezing over avocados and a side of cilantro vinaigrette for dipping.
