Time 20m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves - cut into bite-size pieces
1 clove garlic, crushed
½ cup all-purpose flour
½ cup margarine
¼ cup fresh lemon juice
½ cup chopped fresh mint leaves

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, mix together the chicken pieces and garlic. Toss with the flour just to coat, and shake off excess.
  • Heat the margarine in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken pieces; cook and stir until browned. Add the mint leaves and lemon juice, cover and steam for about 5 minutes, just until the chicken is cooked through. Do not over cook the chicken or it will be tough.

I tried this recipe, but I didn't like the flavor of the mint. I think I'll stick to my usual chicken recipes.

The mint and yogurt marinade really tenderizes the chicken. I cooked it for a little longer than the recipe called for, and it was still moist and juicy.

This dish was a bit too spicy for my taste, but my husband loved it. I'll try making it again with less chili pepper next time.
