Plan ahead, the chicken needs to marinate 6-10 hours. Ingredients:
1/2 cup plain yogurt |
1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro (or 1 1/2 teaspoons ground coriander) |
1 tablespoon olive oil |
2 garlic cloves, minced |
1 1/2 teaspoons paprika |
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cumin |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper |
1 1/2 lbs boneless skinless chicken breasts |
Directions:
1. Mix the marinade ingredients (yogurt, cilantro, olive oil, garlic, paprika, cumin, salt, and pepper) together in a medium sized bowl.
2. Add the chicken pieces to the bowl and thoroughly coat with the marinade. Cover with plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator from 6 to 10 hours.
3. Heat your grill on high heat if you are using a gas grill, or prepare coals for direct heat if you are using charcoal. If you do not have a grill you can use a cast-iron grill pan on your stove.
4. Grill the chicken breasts a few minutes on each side, until cooked through. Take care not to overcook, as chicken breasts can easily dry out.
