Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons onion powder
  • 2 tablespoons garlic powder
  • 2 tablespoons ground ginger
  • 2 tablespoons ground coriander
  • 1 tablespoon ground cumin
  • 1 tablespoon ground cayenne
  • 1 tablespoon ground turmeric
  • 1 tablespoon ground white pepper
  • 1 tablespoon kosher salt
  • 3 (8-ounce) boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 3 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 4 pita breads, warmed on the grill
  • Tomato Jam, recipe follows
  • Herbed Yogurt, recipe follows

Directions

Heat grill to medium-high. Combine all spices and the oil in a medium bowl to make a paste. Rub a thin layer of the spice paste onto 1 side of each chicken breast. Grill for 3 to 4 minutes on each side or until slightly charred and just cooked through. Remove from the grill, let rest 5 minutes, and cut lengthwise into 1/2-inch thick slices. Serve openface on pitas: the chicken slices, a few dollops of Tomato Jam, and a drizzle of Herbed Yogurt.

Grilled Tomato Jam:

Heat grill to high. Brush tomatoes and serrano with oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill tomatoes and serrano on all sides until charred. Remove from the grill and coarsely chop.

Heat oil in a medium saucepan on the grates of the grill or on the side burners. Add the onion and cook until soft. Add the tomatoes, serrano, balsamic vinegar, and saffron and cook until thickened. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer to a bowl and let cool to room temperature before serving.

Herbed Yogurt:

  • 1 cup Greek yogurt
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh mint leaves
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro leaves
  • Salt and freshly ground pepper

Place all ingredients in a food processor and process until smooth. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Refrigerate if not using immediately.

    These were really tasty.. this made a nice light refreshing dinner. My hubby to me to make this often. Next time I will change the amount of mint and only add about half the amount called for and might increase the cilantro. I could not taste the cilantro at all... just mint. My 9yr son really liked the whole meal too.

    Very tasty- I gave 4 stars because I think the cayenne pepper needs to be reduced to fit my kids palate. The tomato relish is very good but I would reduce amt of balsamic to 2 Tbs. Everything else is great!

    My husband absolutely loved it, (loves hot and I did too, but will use less Ceyenne next time. He said it was perfect. I loved the combo of the herbed greek yogurt with the spicy rub and the sweet jam...Yum!!! I followed recipe just as it said, and it was more than awesome. Cilantro is one of my faves, although not overbearing in the yogurt. Overall, excellent!!!!! Great job, Bobby.
