Instructions
- Preheat a grill to medium high. Whisk the honey mustard, molasses, vinegar, melted butter and hot sauce in a bowl until smooth; season with salt and pepper. Remove 1/4 cup to a small bowl for basting the chicken; set aside the rest for serving.
- Toss the okra and bell peppers with the vegetable oil in a bowl; season with salt and pepper. Tear off a 16-inch piece of foil. Spread the vegetables on the left side of the foil. Fold the right side of the foil over and seal the edges to form a packet.
- Brush the grill grates with vegetable oil. Season the chicken with salt and pepper and grill until marked, about 2 minutes per side. Brush with the honey mustard basting sauce; cover and cook until almost cooked through, 5 to 8 minutes. Uncover and cook, flipping and brushing with the remaining basting sauce, until cooked through, about 5 more minutes. Remove to a cutting board and let rest before slicing.
- Meanwhile, grill the foil packet, flipping halfway through, until the vegetables are tender and charred, 12 to 15 minutes. Top the chicken with chives; serve with the grilled vegetables, cornbread and the reserved honey mustard sauce.
