Grilled Chicken with Cucumber Yogurt Sauce

I got this recipe in the mail, it's a sample from "Diabetic Living" magazine, but it looked good. I LOVE CUCUMBERS, so I figured I couldn't lose, right? It's quite refreshing, and would be perfect for a hot summer day.


Grilled Chicken with Cucumber Yogurt Sauce

1 6-oz carton plain low-fat yogurt

1/4 c. thinly sliced green onions

2 tsp. snipped fresh mint or 1/2 tsp dried mint, crushed

1/2 tsp. ground cumin

1 c. chopped, seeded cucumber

4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves

1/4 tsp salt

1/4 tsp pepper, divided


In medium bowl, combine yogurt, green onions, mint, cumin, salt and 1/8 tsp pepper. Transfer 1/2 to a bowl, set aside. For sauce, stir cucumber into remaining yogurt mixture, set aside.


Sprinkle chicken with remaining pepper. Place chicken on the rack of an uncovered grill directly over med. coals. Grill for 12-15 min. or until chicken is no longer pink (170F), turning once 1/2 way through grilling and brushing with the reserved yogurt mix (without cucumber) the last 1/2 of grilling. Discard remaining mix.


Serve chicken with remaining yogurt sauce and if desired, cucumber slices. Makes 4 servings
