Steps:
- Cut chicken breasts in half lengthwise.

- Place Greek yogurt in another bowl and crumble in feta cheese. Add garlic, mint, and lemon zest and whip with an electric hand mixer or whisk until light and fluffy. Taste and adjust as needed. Refrigerate until needed.
- Preheat a charcoal grill until coals are white and very hot.
- Grill chicken over the hot coals for about 4 minutes per side; continue to flip and grill chicken until no longer pink in the center and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of each piece reads at least 150 degrees F (65 degrees C). Remove from the grill and let rest for about 5 minutes.

Tips:
- For the best flavor, use ripe, in-season tomatoes and cucumbers for your gazpacho salsa. Look for tomatoes that are deep red and have a slight give when you press on them. Cucumbers should be firm and have a deep green color.
- Chop the vegetables for your salsa into small, even pieces. This will help them to cook evenly and distribute their flavor throughout the salsa.
- Use a cast iron skillet or grill pan to cook your chicken breasts. This will give them a nice sear and help to keep them moist. If you don't have a cast iron skillet or grill pan, you can also cook the chicken breasts in a regular skillet over medium heat.
- Cook the chicken breasts until they are cooked through but still juicy. The internal temperature of the chicken breasts should be 165 degrees Fahrenheit when they are done.
- Serve the grilled chicken breasts immediately with the gazpacho salsa. You can also garnish the chicken breasts with fresh herbs, such as basil or cilantro.
Conclusion:
Grilled chicken breasts with gazpacho salsa is a delicious and healthy meal that is perfect for a summer cookout or picnic. The chicken breasts are juicy and flavorful, and the gazpacho salsa is refreshing and tangy. This dish is also easy to make, and it can be tailored to your own taste preferences. For example, if you like spicy food, you can add a few chopped jalapeños to the salsa. Or, if you prefer a milder flavor, you can omit the jalapeños and add a bit of honey to the salsa. No matter how you choose to make it, grilled chicken breasts with gazpacho salsa is sure to be a hit.
