Grilled Chicken Thighs with Curry and Yogurt
INGREDIENTS:
1 package boneless, skinless chicken thighs (2-3 thighs)**
1/2 small cucumber diced
2 TBSP. curry powder
1 tsp. ground cumin
1 TBSP. olive oil
1 dash of salt
1/2 cup lowfat/nonfat Greek yogurt
*****can use boneless skinless chicken breasts, if desired)
DIRECTIONS:
1. Sprinkle the dash of salt over the diced cucumber and set on paper towels for 15-30 minutes to drain the liquid.
2. Mix the cucumber and cumin with the yogurt; chill if desired.
3. Flatten the boneless, skinless thighs; cut each in half to form somewhat uniform shapes.
4. Sprinkle with the curry powder to coat. Drizzle the olive oil to coat.
5. Preheat gas grill to medium; rub oil or spray nonstick grill spray on grates.
6. Add chicken to grill; sear for 2-4 minutes, and then turn heat to LOW. (if using a charcoal grill, use indirect heat).
7. Cover and grill for 10 minutes; turn over and continue cooking until chicken is fully cooked, 15-20 minutes on LOW.
8. Turn grill to high to sear the chicken. Remove from grill, cover with foil and let rest for 5 minutes.
9. Serve with Yogurt Sauce on the side.
NOTE: I am sure this can be done in in indoor grill. I am not a grilling expert but I think it would work.
