Directions

Prep 25 minCook 25 min
  1. 1

    Cook the frozen edamame in a large saucepan of boiling salted water until just tender, about 10 minutes. Drain, reserving 1 cup of the cooking liquid for the skordalia.

  2. 2

    Peel the garlic. Combine the basil, 1/3 cup of oil, and garlic in a food processor; blend until the basil and garlic are finely chopped. Transfer 2 tablespoons of the basil oil to a small bowl and reserve.

  3. 3

    Add the edamame, 1/2 cup of the reserved cooking liquid, Parmesan, and lemon juice to the remaining basil oil in the processor; puree until the mixture is almost smooth, adding more cooking liquid by tablespoonfuls if the mixture is dry. Season generously with salt and pepper. Set the skordalia aside.

  4. 4

    Prepare a barbecue to medium-high heat. Brush the grill with oil. Brush the chicken breasts on both sides with the reserved basil oil; sprinkle with salt and pepper. Grill until the chicken is just cooked through, about 6 minutes per side. Slice the chicken breasts crosswise.

  5. 5

    Spoon the warm or room-temperature skordalia onto 4 plates. Top with the chicken.
