Everything for this simple, Spanish-inspired dish gets tossed in the same lemon, garlic, and smoked paprika marinade, then cooked in a grill basket for an easier, faster way to grill dinner. This recipe can easily be doubled to serve four, either by cooking in two batches or using two grill baskets.
