This is an all-barbecue dinner. Cook the potatoes over direct heat until you put the zucchini on - then move the potatoes to the side.
Cumin-Scented Grilled Chicken Preparation and cooking time: 30 minutes2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
2 tbs olive oil
2
tbs cider vinegar
1 tbs Worcestershire sauce
2 tsp Dijon-style mustard
1 tsp cumin
1 tsp oregano
Mix oil, vinegar, Worcestershire, mustard, cumin and oregano. Spoon over chicken breasts and let marinate for 10 minutes. Cook on barbecue grill 6 - 8 minutes per side or sauté in nonstick skillet for about the same amount of time. They should be nicely browned and juices should run clear when pierced with a knife. Remove, slice and serve.
Grilled Potatoes Preparation and cooking time: 35 minutes2 medium potatoes
1 tbs olive oil
2 tsp Worcestershire sauce
1 tsp paprika
1 tsp rosemary
salt and pepper
Slice potatoes in half the long way, then in half again. Then slice in half or thirds the short way. Put remaining ingredients into large bowl and mix well. Add potatoes and stir, coating thoroughly. Put them into an old metal pie plate or cake tin or foil barbecue container (or whatever) that you will never use for any purpose but the barbecue again... and you should have one of these. Cook on barbecue (grill) for 25 - 30 minutes or until done... and you will need to stir them with a long-handled wooden spoon occasionally as they tend to develop 'hot spots' and can get a little crispy. Or you can roast them in the oven. Arrange potatoes on baking sheet with rim (I use my trusty, round pizza pan) Bake at 400F for 30 minutes.
Barbecued Zucchini (Courgette) Preparation and cooking time: 20 minutes1 medium zucchini, about 10 inches (25cm)
1 tsp Dijon-style mustard
2 tbs ketchup
2 tsp Worcestershire sauce
2 tbs olive oil
In small bowl mix all ingredients except zucchini. Slice zucchini into 1/2 inch thick rounds. Do not peel first. Put rounds onto a plate and spoon a bit of sauce onto each side. Place directly onto grill of barbecue. Grill just until soft and starting to brown, 10 - 15 minutes, turning once. Remove and serve.
