Directions

  • Step one

    Stir brown sugar, 1-1/2 teaspoons salt, 1/4-teaspoon pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, parsley, dill, and paprika together in small bowl. Season chicken thighs with rub.

  • Step two

    Microwave edamame and corn according to package directions, cooking one bag at a time. Rinse edamame with cold water to cool. Remove and discard edamame shells.

  • Step three

    Spray cold grates of grill with grilling spray and heat to medium. Grill chicken thighs until charred and no longer pink in center (165°F), 10 to 15 minutes, turning occasionally.

  • Step four

    Place a large cast iron skillet on grill grates. Add chopped bacon to pan and cook until crispy. Use a slotted spoon to remove bacon to a paper towel-lined plate. Cook bell pepper and onion in bacon grease until tender, about 3 minutes. Stir in corn, edamame, vinegar, 1/4-teaspoon salt, 1/8-teaspoon pepper, and cayenne pepper.

  • Step five

    Remove succotash from heat, top with grilled chicken thighs, and garnish with bacon and green onions before serving.

Tips

If you don't have a cast iron skillet and want to make your succotash on the stove top over medium heat, that works great too!
