DIRECTIONS
Dressing: Stir yogourt with oil, parsley, lemon zest, lemon juice, oregano, garlic, salt and pepper; set aside.
Salad: Place potatoes and 1/2 cup water in microwave-safe bowl; cover and cook, stirring once, for 5 to 6 minutes or until potatoes are just fork tender. Drain well. Toss with oil, salt and pepper.
Arrange potatoes, cut-side-down, in a single layer on preheated medium grill. Cook, turning occasionally, for 8 to 10 minutes or until golden and grill marked. (Use a grill mat or pan if your grates are widely spaced.) Cover potatoes and keep warm while chicken grills.
Increase grill heat to high. Remove chicken from packaging to a tray and brush all over with oil. Place chicken, breast-side-down, on grill and turn off the side of the grill directly underneath for indirect cooking. Close lid; grill for 45 minutes, rotating chicken a quarterturn every 15 minutes for even cooking. (Adjust burners as needed during cooking to maintain barbecue at 400°F.)
Flip chicken; close lid and grill for another 15 to 20 minutes or until a thermometer inserted into thickest part of the inner thigh registers 180°F. Rest for 5 minutes.
Toss warm potatoes with 1/3 cup dressing, feta, roasted peppers and onion. Transfer to a serving bowl and sprinkle with additional parsley, if using.
Carve chicken into portions and serve with salad and remaining dressing on the side.
