Expert Tips

To easily seed the cucumber, cut in half lengthwise and run a small spoon down each half to remove seeds.

Try Greek plain yogurt in place of the regular yogurt; the sauce will be a bit thicker.

    I tried this recipe for the first time at my daughter's house and used her family for guinea pigs - she has 3 children, and they will pretty much try anything once. They loved this recipe! All of us were delightfully surprised. We got chicken breasts were quite large, so I had to add to the cooking time, other than that, this is a fast main dish for those busy week nights! I also agree with kcraig09 - the ingredients DO sound a bit odd, but the flavors come together very well!

    This recipe is amazing! As I was making it, I kept thinking the ingredients used used were really odd combinations and I had my doubts about this recipe, but it was AMAZING! It was a hit at my house and I will be making it again! Soon! Totally recommend this recipe! Also, if you have leftovers (or make extra), just toss the leftover chicken and sauce on a tortilla the next day and have a yummy wrap for lunch :)

    My family loves chicken fixed this way. I grate the cucumber and use Yoplait non-fat Greek yogurt (plain) for a thicker sauce. Also, I spinkle a bit of lemon-pepper and squeeze a bit of lemon juice on the chicken. The sauce will also work well with other meats.
