lighter. Here are some easy recipes for summer meals.<br />

Grilled Chicken Souvlaki<br />

ingredients<br />

1 lb. boneless, skinless chicken breasts<br />

3 tbsp. olive oil<br />

1/2 tsp. ground coriander<br />

1/2 tsp. dried oregano<br />

Kosher salt<br />

Pepper<br />

1 pt. grape tomatoes<br />

2 clove garlic<br />

3 tbsp. fresh lemon juice<br />

directions<br />

1. Heat grill to medium-high. In a large bowl, toss the chicken with 1<br />

tablespoon oil, then the coriander, oregano and 1/4 teaspoon each<br />

salt and pepper. Thread onto skewers.<br />

2. Place the tomatoes and garlic on a large piece of heavy-duty foil.<br />

Drizzle with 1 tablespoon oil and sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon each<br />

salt and pepper. Fold and seal the foil to form a pouch.<br />

3. Place the pouch and skewers on the grill and cook, shaking the<br />

pouch and turning the kebabs occasionally, until the chicken is<br />

cooked through, 8 to 10 minutes. Just before removing from the grill,<br />

brush the chicken with 1 tablespoon lemon juice.<br />

4. Meanwhile, in a large bowl, toss the lettuce, scallions, and dill with<br />

the remaining 2 tablespoons of lemon juice and tablespoon oil, plus<br />

¼ teaspoon each salt and pepper. If desired, grill pita bread until<br />

warm, 1 minute each side.<br />

5. Spread the pita with yogurt, if desired, then stuff with the chicken,<br />

tomatoes, and salad.<br />
