TANDOORI-STYLE CHICKEN WITH CUCUMBER MELON RELISH
We all need a quick meal that's deliciously healthy. I marinate the chicken before I leave for work, and when I get home, I grill the chicken and make the relish. My husband loves the spicy flavor. To amp up the heat, add more crushed red pepper flakes. -Naylet LaRochelle, Miami, Florida
