Amount Ingredient
4 x boneless skinless chicken breasts abt 1 1/2 lbs
1 tbl roasted garlic oil see * Note
Salt to taste
Freshly-ground black pepper to taste
1/2 x lemon
1/4 cup chopped fresh basil
1/4 cup chopped cilantro
1 tbl chopped fresh oregano leaves
1/2 cup chopped red onion
1 sm Japanese cucumber peeled, diced
Instructions:
Instructions: * Note: Garlic oil can be found with other oils at most well-stocked supermarkets. Use it, too, to make salad dressings or other marinades, or as a quick dipping sauce for bread. Brush it on meat before barbecuing; minced garlic tends to burn and taste bitter when grilled.

Place the chicken breasts between 2 layers of plastic wrap. Using a kitchen mallet, lightly pound the chicken breasts, flattening to about 1/4-inch thick. Place the chicken in a glass dish and drizzle with the garlic oil, turning so all sides are coated. Cover and marinate 15 minutes.

Meanwhile, heat a grill to medium-high. Grill the chicken until browned on one side, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste, turn and grill until the other side is browned and the chicken reaches 165 degrees on a meat thermometer, another 3 to 5 minutes. Remove to a warm platter. Squeeze the lemon half over the chicken.

Toss together the basil, cilantro, oregano, onion, cucumber, olives and salt to taste. Spoon the cucumber mixture over the grilled chicken and serve.
