    Source of Recipe


    Cooking Light, Jul/Aug 1994, page 127

    List of Ingredients




    1/2 cup chopped onion
    2 tablespoons chili powder
    2 teaspoons ground cumin
    1 teaspoon water
    (original recipe calls for 1/2 teaspoon salt )
    1/4 teaspoon ground pepper
    2 cloves garlic
    4 boneless skinless chicken breast halves
    Vegetable cooking spray

    1/4 cup Dijon mustard
    1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
    2 tablespoons water
    1 tablespoon vegetable oil (may wish to reduce amount and see if it works for you)

    (original recipe calls for 1 cup frozen whole kernel corn thawed)
    1/2 cup sliced green onions
    6 cups tightly packed sliced romaine lettuce

    Recipe



    Position knife blade in food processor bowl, and add first 7 ingredients. Process until a paste forms, scraping sides of processor bowl occasionally.

    Place chicken breast halves in a shallow dish; spread onion mixture evenly over both sides of each piece. Cover and let marinate in refrigerator 20 minutes.

    Place chicken on a broiler rack coated with cooking spray, and place rack on a broiler pan. Broil 3-1/2 inches from heat 5 minutes on each side or until done. Cut chicken across grain into thin slices; set aside, and chill, if desired.

    Combine mustard and next 3 ingredients in a small bowl; stir with a wire whisk until well blended. Stir in (corn and) green onions.

    Notes: To serve, divide sliced lettuce evenly among plates, and top with warm or chilled chicken slices. Pour dressing evenly over salads.
