Chicken with Mole Rub

We found this recipe in Jason's book: "Weber's time to grill".  We had Jason's family over for dinner.  This was a unique recipe for chicken.


Ingredients:
2 Tbsp pure chile powder
2 tsp unsweetened cocoa powder
2 tsp packed brown sugar
1 tsp Kosher Salt
1 tsp ground black pepper

2 limes, each cut in half
4 plum tomatoes, cut in half lengthwise
2 zucchini, each cut diagonally into 1/3 inch slices
4 chicken breasts
2 Tbsp olive oil

Directions:
1.  Prepare grill for direct and indirect cooking over medium heat (350-450F).
2.  In a small bowl combine all the rub ingredients.  Season the cut sides of the limes, tomatoes, and zuchini slices with rub.  Lightly coat the chicken and both sides with the oil and season evenly with remaining rub.
3.  Brush the grill grates clean.  Grill the chicken over direct medium heat with lid closed for 3-5 minutes then flip.  Let the chicken rest after it is cooked through.  While the chicken is resting, grill the veggies over direct medium heat, with lid closed until the limes and tomatoes and warm and the zucchini is crisp-tender, 3-5 minutes, turning once.
4.  Squeeze the grilled limes over the chicken and serve with tomatoes and zucchini.
