Chicken with Tomato/Cucumber Salsa

Chicken with Tomato/Cucumber Salsa
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1/4 teaspoon coriander
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 3 plum tomatoes, diced
  • 1 cucumbers, peeled, seeded and diced
  • 3 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground red pepper
In a small bowl, combine the oregano, cumin and coriander and 1/4 tsp of the salt. Rub the chicken with the spice mixture, drizzle with oil and cook in a non-stick skillet on medium heat.
While the chicken is cooking, make the salsa : combine the tomato, cucumber, parsley, vinegar, pepper and remaining salt. Refrigerate salsa till chicken is done. After chicken is cooked, spoon salsa over chicken and serve.
I actually made 10 times the amount of the spice mixture and put it in an extra salt shaker so when I make this chicken, I just shake a little of the spices on while it is cooking.
