Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

6 plum tomatoes (about 1 pound)
1 pound zucchini
1 cup packed fresh coriander sprigs
1 cup chopped onion
2 teaspoons vegetable oil
2 teaspoons minced garlic
1 1/2 cups fresh corn (from about 3 ears)
2 tablespoons jalapeño pepper jelly
4 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon chili powder
1 1/2 pounds chicken cutlets
2 tablespoons cream cheese

Steps:

  • Prepare grill.
  • Seed and chop tomatoes and cut zucchini into 1/2-inch pieces. Finely chop coriander. In a heavy skillet cook onion in oil over moderately low heat, stirring, until softened. Add tomatoes, zucchini, garlic, corn, and salt and pepper to taste and simmer, covered, stirring occasionally, until zucchini is tender, 25 to 30 minutes.
  • While corn mixture is simmering, prepare chicken. In a small saucepan melt jelly over moderate heat, stirring, and remove pan from heat. Stir in lemon juice and chili powder and divide jelly mixture between 2 small bowls (to prevent the potential contamination caused by uncooked meat juices). Pat chicken dry and brush with jelly mixture from 1 bowl. Season chicken with salt and grill on an oiled rack set 5 to 6 inches over glowing coals until just cooked through, about 4 minutes on each side. With a clean brush, coat chicken with jelly mixture from other bowl.
  • Stir cream cheese into corn mixture until melted and stir in coriander and salt and pepper to taste.
  • Serve corn mixture topped with chicken.

I'm not a big fan of zucchini, but I loved it in this dish. The glaze really brings out the flavor.

This dish is a great way to use up leftover chicken. I made it with some leftover rotisserie chicken, and it was delicious.

I would love to try this recipe with different types of chicken. I think it would be great with boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs.

I would love to try this recipe with different types of pepper jelly. I think a mango pepper jelly would be especially good.
