Indian cuisine influences this refreshingly different chicken dish. From the Better Homes and Gardens Dieter's Cookbook. This delicious chicken dish is served with a delightfully sweet and spicy pineapple relish. Ingredients:
3/4 teaspoon ground cardamom |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/2-1 teaspoon ground black pepper |
4 boneless skinless chicken breast halves |
2 teaspoons olive oil |
1/2 of a medium fresh pineapple, peeled, cored and coarsely chopped (about 1 2/3 cups) |
1/2 of a medium sweet red pepper, finely chopped |
2 tablespoons fresh cilantro or 2 tablespoons parsley, chopped |
2 tablespoons lime juice |
2 tablespoons thinly sliced green onions |
1 fresh jalapeno pepper, seeded and finely chopped |
Directions:
1. In a small bowl combine 1/2 tsp of the cardamom, the salt, and black pepper. Rub both sides of chicken with oil; sprinkle evenly with spice mixture.
2. Grill chicken on the rack of an uncovered grill directly over medium coals for 12 to 15 minutes or until chicken is no longer pink (170°F), turning once.
3. For relish, in a medium bowl combine pineapple, sweet pepper, cilantro (or parsley), lime juice, green onion, jalapeño pepper, and the remaining 1/4 teaspoon cardamom. Serve chicken with relish. If desired, garnish with herb sprigs.
