Instructions

1. Heat a grill to medium-high and clean the grates; husk the corn, halve the tomatoes, dice the avocado, mince the jalapeño, chop the cilantro, and cut the zucchini into long planks.
2. In a bowl, mix 1 tablespoon olive oil with the lime zest, half the lime juice, chili powder, cumin, smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper; coat the chicken thighs thoroughly and let them sit while the grill heats, about 10 minutes.
3. Brush the corn and zucchini with the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil and season lightly with salt.
4. Grill the chicken over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until well charred in spots and the thickest part reaches 165°F, about 18–24 minutes depending on thigh size; move to a cooler part of the grill if browning too quickly.
5. While the chicken cooks, grill the corn and zucchini until lightly charred and tender, about 8–10 minutes for corn and 4–6 minutes for zucchini, turning as needed.
6. Transfer the chicken to a plate to rest for 5 minutes; cut the kernels from the corn and chop the grilled zucchini into bite-size pieces.
7. Toss the corn, zucchini, tomatoes, avocado, jalapeño, cilantro, and remaining lime juice together, then taste and adjust with salt.
8. Plate the grilled chicken thighs with the warm corn-zucchini salsa spooned alongside or over the top, with extra lime wedges if desired.
