For the Brazilian Vinaigrette Salsa:
  • 1 cup peeled, seeded, and diced tomato (1/4-inch dice)
  • 1/2 cup diced red bell pepper (1/4-inch dice)
  • 1/2 cup diced green bell pepper (1/4-inch dice)
  • 3 tablespoons white wine vinegar
  • 3 to 4 tablespoons olive oil
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

  • 2 teaspoons coarse sea salt
  • 2 tablespoons minced garlic
  • 6 tablespoons (34 stick) butter, melted
  • 1 teaspoon ground bay leaf

Yield

Serves: 4-6

Preparation

For the Brazilian Vinaigrette Salsa: Combine all the ingredients in a medium bowl and stir well to combine. Allow the salsa to sit at room temperature for at least 1 hour before serving. Yields 2 cups.                      

For the chicken: Preheat a grill to medium-low.

Season the chicken with the sea salt.

In a small bowl, combine the butter, garlic and bay leaf.

Place the chicken, skin side down, on the grill and brush it with the butter-garlic blend. Cook for 7 minutes. Turn the chicken over, baste it with more of the butter mixture, and cook for another 7 minutes. Turn the chicken skin side down, and cook for 7 minutes more. Turn it over one last time and cook until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the deepest portion of the thighs registers 160F to 165F, about 7 minutes longer. Remove from the pan, and serve with the Vinaigrette Salsa.
