Steps:
- Mix together vinaigrette ingredients: In a small bowl or jar, combine white-wine vinegar, Dijon mustard, and honey; season generously with coarse salt and ground pepper. Whisk or shake to combine. Add olive oil; whisk or shake again. Store in an airtight container or jar, and refrigerate, up to 2 weeks. Shake before using.
- Heat grill to medium. Fold two 4-foot-long sheets of aluminum foil in half to make two separate double-layer sheets. Place half the potatoes on each double layer. Form two packets, folding foil over potatoes and crimping edges to seal. Place on grill and cook, turning over once, until potatoes are tender, about 25 minutes. Remove from heat. Leave potatoes wrapped in foil to keep warm. Raise grill to high; lightly oil grates.
- Meanwhile, make marinade: In a large baking dish, whisk together oil, garlic, vinegar, thyme, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Add chicken; turn several times to coat. Let marinate at room temperature 10 minutes and up to 30 minutes.
- Lift chicken from marinade and grill until browned and cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Remove from grill. Cover chicken with foil to keep warm.
- Remove warm potatoes from foil; transfer to a medium bowl, toss with butter, and season with salt and pepper. In a medium bowl, toss asparagus with 2TBS Vinaigrette. Serve the grilled chicken with potatoes and asparagus. Garnish with thyme sprigs, if desired.

Steps:
- Position a rack in the lower third of the oven and preheat to 425 degrees F. Toss the potatoes with 1 tablespoon olive oil, the cumin seeds, 3/4 teaspoon salt, and pepper to taste. Spread in a large baking dish and roast until the potatoes begin to brown, 25 to 30 minutes.
- Meanwhile, heat the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil in a small skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic and cook, stirring frequently, until lightly golden, about 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the brown sugar, lemon juice and red pepper flakes. Remove the baking dish from the oven, push the potatoes to the sides and arrange the chicken breasts in the middle. Season the chicken with salt and drizzle with the garlic mixture. Return to the oven and bake until the chicken is cooked through and the potatoes are tender, about 20 minutes.
- Remove from the oven; transfer the chicken to a cutting board and slice. Add the cilantro to the baking dish and toss with the potatoes. Serve the chicken with the potatoes and lemon wedges. Drizzle with the pan juices.

Tips:
- Use a flavorful marinade: The marinade is what gives the chicken its delicious flavor, so don't skimp on the ingredients. Use a combination of olive oil, garlic, lemon juice, herbs, and spices to create a marinade that will infuse the chicken with flavor.
- Marinate the chicken for at least 30 minutes: The longer you marinate the chicken, the more time the flavors will have to penetrate the meat. If you're short on time, you can marinate the chicken for as little as 30 minutes, but for the best results, marinate it for at least 2 hours.
- Grill the chicken over medium heat: Grilling the chicken over medium heat will help to prevent it from drying out. If you grill the chicken over high heat, it will cook too quickly and become tough.
- Serve the chicken with grilled potatoes: Grilled potatoes are a delicious and easy side dish that pairs perfectly with garlic marinated chicken cutlets. To make grilled potatoes, simply toss potato wedges with olive oil, salt, and pepper, and then grill them until they are tender and slightly browned.
Conclusion:
Garlic marinated chicken cutlets with grilled potatoes is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. The chicken is juicy and flavorful, and the potatoes are crispy and tender. This dish is sure to please everyone at your table.
