Grilled Chicken With Chili Hollandaise and Grilled Peppers image

This savory marinated chicken is the perfect way to kick off barbeque season! Serve with Herbed Corn Cakes. From a July 1986 issue of Bon Appetit in an article called "Summer Parties with Style". Start off this dinner with Chilled Tomato Soup, if you like. Start the chicken the day before you plan on serving it, as it needs to marinate overnight in the refrigerator. Marinating time is not included in the prep time.
