Ingredients

Sauce

  • 1 medium cucumber, peeled, seeded and finely chopped
  • 1/4 cup Yoplait® All Natural Fat Free plain yogurt (from 32 oz. container)
  • 1/4 cup sour cream
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
  • 2 teaspoons lemon juice
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cumin

Chicken

  • 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts (about 1 1/4 lb)
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 2 teaspoons vegetable oil
  • 2 tablespoons water
  • Fresh parsley, if desired

Steps

  • 1
    In medium bowl, mix all sauce ingredients. Cover; refrigerate until serving time.

    Sprinkle both sides of chicken with salt and cinnamon. In 10-inch skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Cook chicken in oil 10 to 12 minutes, turning occasionally, until golden brown. Reduce heat to low; add water. Cover; cook 2 to 3 minutes longer or until juice of chicken is clear when center of thickest part is cut (165°F).

    Serve chicken with yogurt sauce. Garnish with parsley.

Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    To easily seed the cucumber, cut in half lengthwise and run a small spoon down each half to remove seeds.
  • tip 2
    Try Greek plain yogurt in place of the regular yogurt; the sauce will be a bit thicker.
