4 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves (about 8 ounces each)
1 small red onion, thinly sliced
1 cucumber, peeled, seeded, and chopped
3 sprigs fresh cilantro, stems removed
Juice of 1 lime
How to make
Broiled yogurt ginger chicken breasts
Stir together the yogurt, ginger, cumin, 1/ 4 teaspoon cayenne, and 1 / 2 teaspoon salt in a 9 x 13-inch baking dish.
Starting on one long side, cut each chicken piece almost in half horizontally (stop about1 / 2 inch before reaching opposite side). Open each piece like a book.
Add the chicken to the marinade in the dish; turn to coat. Cover with plastic wrap. Refrigerate at least 1 hour or up to 8 hours.
Preheat the broiler. Toss together the red onion, cucumber, cilantro, lime juice, remaining 1/ 4 teaspoon cayenne (or to taste), and a pinch of salt in a small bowl.
Transfer the chicken to a broiler pan. Discard the marinade. Broil the chicken, rotating the pan once, until cooked through, about 10 minutes. Top with the cucumber mixture.
