    Source of Recipe


    Internet

    List of Ingredients




    1 cucumber, peeled, seeded and grated
    1 tsp salt
    1/2 cup skim milk yogurt
    1/2 cup light mayonnaise
    2 tbsp chopped parsley
    2 tbsp chopped fresh mint (or 2 tsp dried mint)
    2 cloves garlic, minced

    Combine marinade ingredients and pour over chicken. Marinate in
    the fridge for up to 24 hours. Remove chicken from marinade and
    grill over medium heat for 5 -7 minutes per side.

    Serve with rice, or oven roasted potatoes, and cucumber sauce.

    Makes 4 servings.

    Tip: The marinade can also be used on strips of chicken. After
    marinating, thread the strips onto skewers and grill for 5 - 7
    minutes per side.


    Cucumber Sauce

    1 lbs boneless, skinless chicken (thigh or breast)
    2 tbsp lemon juice
    1 tbsp olive oil
    1/2 tsp salt
    1/2 tsp pepper
    1/4 tsp oregano
    1/4 tsp cumin
    2 cloves garlic, minced

    In a strainer mix cucumber and salt and set aside for at least 15
    minutes. Squeeze extra liquid from cucumber. Blend grated cucumber
    with remaining ingredients and refridgerate until needed. Serve
    with Greek Chicken.

    Tip: If you don't have a strainer put cucumber and salt in a double
    layer of paper coffee filters. Gently squeeze the extra liquid out
    of the mixture.
