On occasions where we don’t know what to cook for our familias, it's good to remember that there are plenty of easy recipes you can prepare with budget-friendly ingredients. Usually we can already find most of these ingredients in our own freezer or pantry. Here this is just the case- these grilled chicken breasts paired with a cucumber and yogurt sauce create a new and refrescante combination with great flavor.

Ingredients

  • 1 (6 ozs) cup Yoplait® All Natural Fat Free plain yogurt
  • 1/4 cup diced green onion
  • 1 medium-sized seedless cucumber, grated (approx. 1 cup)
  • 1/4 cup sour cream
  • 1 tablespoon freshly chopped cilantro
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon fresh ground cumin
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • 4 boneless chicken breasts, skinless

Directions

  •  
    1
    In a medium-sized bowl, combine half of the yogurt with the sour cream, lemon juice, cumin, salt and pepper. Set aside.

    Season the chicken breasts as desired with salt and pepper on both sides. Cook the chicken over your grill or BBQ for around 12-15 minutes on each side or until well cooked. Before flipping over, dress the top with a bit of the first yogurt-cumin sauce prepared in this recipe. Repeat on the other side. Discard any remaining sauce.
