Grilled Chicken & Pine Nut–Chili Salsa
In this bright, salsa-slicked dish, chicken thighs are steeped overnight in a cider vinegar brine, locking in moisture and laying the groundwork for deeper flavour. Grilled until golden and charred, they’re draped in a punchy pine nut salsa—laced with wildflower honey, white wine vinegar, chives, and a flicker of Fresno chili heat. Chewy pearls of fregola sit beneath it, with tender rapini served on the side.
