I found this recipe on a website "Simply Recipes" . This chicken has a nice smooth spice and was very easy to make. I served it with Lemon Roasted Potatoes. Perfect for a week night meal. |
INGREDIENTS:
1/2 cup plain yogurt
1 Tbsp lemon juice
1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro
1 Tbsp olive oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cumin
1 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 1/2 pounds skinless, boneless chicken breasts (approx 4)
METHOD
Mix the marinade ingredients (yogurt, lemon juice, cilantro, olive oil, garlic, cumin, paprika, cinnamon, salt, and pepper) together in a medium sized bowl. Cover each breast with a piece of plastic wrap and with a meat pounder/mallet starting at the centre of the breast pound until even thickness. Add the chicken pieces to the bowl or ziplock bag and thoroughly coat with the marinade. Chill in the refrigerator from 2 hours to overnight.
Heat your grill on high heat if you are using a gas grill, or cast-iron grill pan on your stove.
Grill the chicken breasts over direct high heat for 3-4 minutes on one side. Then turn them over and cook until chicken is cooked through.Adjust the time depending on how thick or thin your breasts are.
Take care not to overcook, as chicken breasts can easily dry out.
