Make
- If making chicken and zucchini on the grill: Preheat grill to 500F (260C) degrees, keeping one part on higher heat and another part on lower heat. Clean grates and brush with some oil. Add chicken breast halves and zucchini over direct heat. Sear on each side for ~3 minutes (keeping cover closed). Move chicken and zucchini to lower heat and cook chicken for another 2 to 3 minutes (or until chicken is cooked through) and zucchini for another 4 to 5 minutes with cover closed.

Brush pan with oil and then add chicken and zucchini to hot grill pan and sear for ~3 minutes on both sides. Lower heat and then cover with foil, cooking for another 2 to 3 minutes.
- Let chicken rest for ~5 minutes. Chop into bite-sized pieces and toss with second part of the marinade.
