Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 lemon
3 garlic cloves, finely grated
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
3/4 teaspoon smoked paprika
3 tablespoons olive oil, plus more for grill
3 boneless, skinless chicken thighs (about 1 pound), halved
2 leeks (about 8 ounces), quartered, white and light green parts cut into 3" pieces
1 large red bell pepper, cut into 2"-thick strips
1/2 pound baby new potatoes, halved
1 1/2 cups parsley leaves with tender stems
Special Equipment
A flat grill basket (about 13 1/2 x 8 1/2")
