Grilled Chicken with Cucumber, Radish, and Cherry Tomato Relish image

Grilled chicken is a summer staple, and here's a welcome new accompaniment. The colorful relish is cool, crisp, and juicy, with a touch of heat. While the chicken cooks, the vegetables-cucumber, radishes, red onion, and cherry tomatoes-steep in a vinegary mix until they're lightly pickled. Fresh mint leaves give the dish an herbal fragrance and finish.

SPICY GRILLED CHICKEN WITH TOMATO-CUCUMBER RELISH



Spicy Grilled Chicken With Tomato-Cucumber Relish image

Chicken thighs meet with a mellow mix of Indian spices and are grilled into weekend dinner excellence. In Indian cooking, most spices are toasted before they're used, a process that brings up their aromatics and mellows and rounds their flavors. Here they're then rubbed onto chicken thighs and grilled, which gives them an additional smokiness that pairs beautifully with the tomato-and-cucumber relish.

Categories     dinner, weekday, main course

Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 teaspoon cracked cumin seeds
1 teaspoon cracked coriander seeds
1 teaspoon cracked mustard seeds
1 medium tomato, diced small
1 cucumber, peeled and seeded if desired, diced small
1 teaspoon minced fresh chile pepper of your choice
1/2 cup fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon sugar
Kosher salt and pepper to taste
1 teaspoon ground turmeric
1 tablespoon ground ginger
1 tablespoon chile powder
1 tablespoon curry powder
8 bone-in chicken thighs, about 8 ounces each

Steps:

  • Build a fire in your grill; when the coals are all covered with gray ash and the temperature is medium-hot (you can hold your hand 5 inches above the coals for 3 to 4 seconds), you are ready to cook. (For a gas grill, turn all burners to high, lower cover and heat for 15 minutes, then turn burners to medium-high.)
  • While fire heats, make the relish: In a small sauté pan, toast the cumin seeds, coriander seeds and mustard seeds over medium heat, shaking frequently to avoid burning, until they begin to darken slightly and you can smell them. Remove from heat, allow to cool slightly, then combine in a medium bowl with the tomato, cucumber, chile pepper, lemon juice, sugar and salt and pepper to taste. Toss gently to combine and set aside.
  • In the same small sauté pan, toast the turmeric, ginger, chile powder and curry powder over medium heat, shaking frequently to avoid burning, until mixture begins to darken slightly and you can smell it. Remove from heat, and allow to cool slightly.
  • Sprinkle chicken generously with salt and pepper, then rub toasted spices all over it, pressing gently so they adhere.
  • Put the thighs on the grill directly over the coals, skin down, and cook until skin is crisp, about 8 minutes. Flip and cook 6 to 8 minutes. Thighs are done when a thermometer inserted in the thickest part of the thigh reads 165 degrees. Remove from heat and serve with the relish.

GRILLED CHICKEN BREAST WITH CUCUMBER RELISH



Grilled Chicken Breast with Cucumber Relish image

To ensure the boneless, skinless chicken breasts stay nice and juicy in this Grilled Chicken Breast with Cucumber Relish recipe, pound them to an even thickness and sprinkle with salt about half an hour before grilling. This step gives the salt a chance to create tiny pockets in the meat for the juices to collect into as it cooks. A zesty, Thai-inspired cucumber relish that you can chop up while you wait adds a cooling crunch and splash of color to the finished dish.

EMERIL'S GRILLED CHICKEN PAILLARD WITH TOMATO-CUCUMBER RELISH



Emeril's Grilled Chicken Paillard With Tomato-Cucumber Relish image

From Good Morning America. We only made the chicken paillards and the tomato-cucumber relish, so I don't know how it is with the bruschetta, although I suspect it's great! We're going to do our chicken breasts this way anytime we need a quick and easy recipe.

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 30m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

4 chicken breast halves, boneless and skinless (6-ounces each)
1 large tomatoes, cored and cut into 1/2-inch dice
1 small cucumber, peeled, seeded, and cut into 1/2-inch dice
3 tablespoons green onions, finely sliced (green tops only)
3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
2 teaspoons extra virgin olive oil
salt, to taste
black pepper
2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
creole seasoning
1 bunch arugula, tough stems removed, washed and spun dry
8 slices Italian bread (1/2-inch thick diagonal)
2 1/2 tablespoons olive oil
1 large garlic clove, peeled and crushed

Steps:

  • Preheat the grill to high (500 F). Clean the grill while it is heating with a metal wire grill brush and season with a tightly rolled kitchen cloth coated in vegetable or olive oil.
  • Place each chicken breast half between two sheets of plastic wrap. With the flat side of a meat mallet or the side of a cleaver, working from the outer edges in, gently pound to a thickness of 1/4-inch. Refrigerate, still between the plastic wrap, for 5 minutes.
  • Combine the tomatoes, cucumbers, green onions, 2 tablespoons of the extra virgin olive oil, and a pinch each of salt and pepper and toss to combine. Set aside.
  • In a small bowl, combine the 5 teaspoons remaining oil with the lemon juice, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and pinch freshly ground black pepper and stir to blend.
  • Remove one piece of the plastic wrap from each chicken breast. Rub about 3/4 teaspoon of the olive oil mixture on the exposed side and season lightly with Creole seasoning.
  • Carefully place the chicken, seasoned side down, on the hot grill and quickly peel away the remaining piece of plastic wrap. With a spoon, dab the remaining olive oil mixture onto the exposed chicken and rub evenly over the meat. Cook for 1 1/2 minutes, turn, and cook until the chicken is firm to the touch, about 2 minutes.
  • To serve, place 1 chicken breast in the center of each of 4 large plates and divide the relish among the plates, spooning it partially onto and to the side of the chicken breasts. Arrange the arugula on the sides of the plates with 2 slices of bruschetta. Serve immediately.
  • Bruschetta - Preheat the grill to medium-high.
  • Using a pastry brush, lightly brush both sides of the bread with oil.
  • Place the bread slices on the grill and cook until marked and lightly toasted, about 1 minute per side. Remove from the grill and rub one side of the bread with the crushed garlic.
  • Serve immediately or at room temperature. Makes 8 slices.

GRILLED CHICKEN WITH TOMATO AND CUCUMBERS



Grilled Chicken With Tomato and Cucumbers image

I like the recipe because, it has onion in it. Onion is my favorite veggie. It tastes SOOOOO good you have to try it. But, if you are making for children leave the cilantro. I found it on the internet And changed it to make it my own. Strain the lime juice. It is heart healthy.
