While we may be saying goodbye to barbecue season, there's still time to whip up these Middle Eastern Grilled Chicken breasts before the snow buries our barques. Tender, juicy and marinated with fat free organic yogurt, these chicken breasts make for a tasty meal any day of the week.
Ingredients:
2 cups of plain fat free organic yogurt
2 tablespoons dried cumin
1/4 cup of chopped cilantro stems (only)
1 teaspoon ground saffron
1 full garlic finely diced
2 tablespoons lemon juice
The night before, combine the ingredients into a bowl. Mix well and then cover the chicken (I used breasts this time).
Let it sit overnight in a
covered marinating vessel in the fridge. Grill and serve! If you don't have access to a BBQ, bake in the over at 350 degrees for 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the thickness of the meat and the make of your oven.
Serve with a side of steamed (or grilled) green beans or asparagus, and homemade organic fries.
