Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 skinless boneless chicken breast halves (about 1-1/4 lb.)
1 tsp. ground cumin
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. freshly ground black pepper
2 tsp. olive oil
Nonstick cooking spray
2 Tbsp. lemon juice

Steps:

  • 1. Put the chicken between 2 pieces of plastic wrap and pound it lightly with a mallet or rolling pin so it is an even thickness of about 1/2 inch. 2. In a small bowl, combine the cumin, salt, and pepper. Rub chicken breasts on both sides with olive oil, then rub the spice mixture on both sides. 3. Spray a grill or nonstick grill pan with cooking spray and heat over medium-high heat. Cook chicken until grill marks form and chicken is no longer pink, about 3 to 4 minutes per side. Remove from heat, let rest 5 minutes. Drizzle with lemon juice. Makes 4 servings. 4. The chicken will keep for up to 3 days in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
