This quick and flavorful grilled lemon-basil chicken is the perfect weeknight dinner. Marinate in the morning, toss on the Traeger after work, and enjoy a light, garden-fresh meal that pairs beautifully with my Fresh Corn, Tomato & Basil Salad.

Sweet corn was always a simple summer treat in my family—boiled and served with butter. This year, I gave it a fresh twist by tossing just-picked kernels with garden tomatoes, basil, onion, and a squeeze of lime. Finished with salty feta, this salad is light, vibrant, and perfect for any summer table.
