Steps:
- One at a time, place the chicken breasts in a 1-gallon zip-lock bag; using a meat mallet, pound to an even ½-inch thickness.
- Mix all of the ingredients except for the chicken together in a 1-gallon zip-lock bag (go ahead and use the same one you used for pounding if it is still in good shape). Add the chicken breasts to the bag and massage the marinade into the meat until evenly coated. Seal the bag and place in a bowl in the refrigerator (the bowl protects against leakage); let the chicken marinate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
- Preheat the grill to high heat and oil the grates. Place the chicken breasts on the grill and cook, covered, for 2 to 3 minutes per side. Do not overcook. Transfer the chicken to a platter and serve.

GRILLED CHICKEN BREAST WITH MARINATED CHERRY TOMATO SALAD
"This is a great summertime dish as tomatoes are at their peak during the summer," says Marc. "Serve with some crusty bread to soak up any leftover cherry tomatoes."

Steps:
- For the marinated cherry tomatoes: Toast the coriander seeds in a small skillet over medium heat until fragrant, 3 to 5 minutes. Transfer to a mortar and pestle and crack. Allow to cool.
- Bring a medium pot of water to a boil. Make a small "x" incision at the bottom of each tomato. Blanch the cherry tomatoes for 1 minute and immediately transfer them to a large bowl filled with ice water (an ice bath). Allow the tomatoes to cool, and then peel the tomatoes and discard the skins.
- In a medium bowl, mix together the coriander, peeled tomatoes, onions, olive oil, ginger juice, basil, mint, vinegar, and garlic. Season with salt and pepper, cover, and allow the tomato mixture to sit at room temperature for 4 hours.
- For the chicken: Combine the olive oil, basil and garlic in a large bowl. Add the chicken breasts, making sure to coat all sides with the marinade. Cover and let marinate for at least 2 hours in the refrigerator.
- Preheat the grill to medium heat. Remove the chicken from the marinade and pat dry with a towel. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Add chicken breasts and grill for around 5 minutes on each side, depending on how hot your grill is, or until cooked through.
- Serve the chicken with some of the marinated tomatoes on top.
LEMON AND GARLIC CHICKEN WITH CHERRY TOMATOES
This is a summery dish to make in the middle of a cold winter (or early spring), but you can find decent cherry tomatoes even now, from Florida or from Mexico. I marinate the breasts in lemon juice, olive oil, garlic and rosemary before I pound them. This makes them very flavorful, a great savory contrast to the sweet tomato topping.

Steps:
- Stir together the olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, rosemary, and salt and pepper in a large bowl. Cut each chicken breast into 2 equal pieces (3 if they weigh 12 ounces or more) and place in the bowl. Stir together and refrigerate 15 to 30 minutes.
- Remove chicken from marinade and pat dry with paper towels (discard marinade). Place two sheets of plastic wrap (1 large sheet if you have extra-wide wrap) on your work surface, overlapping slightly, to make 1 wide sheet, and brush lightly with olive oil. Place a piece of chicken in the middle of plastic sheet and brush lightly with oil. Cover the chicken with another wide layer of plastic wrap. Working from the center to the outside, pound chicken breast with the flat side of a meat tenderizer until about 1/4 inch thick. (Don't pound too hard or you'll tear the meat. If that happens it won't be the end of the world, you'll just have a few pieces to cook.) Repeat with the remaining chicken breast pieces.
- Season the pounded chicken breasts with salt and pepper on one side only. Dredge lightly in the flour (you will not use all of it) and tap the breasts to remove excess.
- Turn oven on low. Heat a wide, heavy skillet over high heat and add oil. When oil is hot, place one or two pieces of chicken in the pan - however many will fit without crowding. Cook for 1 1/2 minutes, until bottom is browned in spots. Turn over and brown other side, about 1 1/2 minutes. (Do not overcook or chicken will be dry.) Transfer to a platter or sheet pan and keep warm in the oven. If there is more than a tablespoon of fat in the pan, pour some off into a jar or bowl.
- Turn heat on burner down to medium-high. Add wine to pan and stir with a wooden spoon to deglaze. Add cherry tomatoes and cook, stirring often or tossing in the pan, until they begin to shrivel and burst. Add sugar and salt and pepper to taste and continue to cook, tossing the tomatoes in the pan and stirring often, for 5 to 10 minutes, until tomatoes have collapsed but are still intact. Top chicken breasts with the tomatoes, sprinkle with parsley and with Parmesan if using, and serve.

Steps:
- Plunge the tomatoes in boiling water for 1 minute to help make peeling easier. Remove the skin, cut in quarters and remove the seeds. Cut in small cubes, reserve.
- Cut the red onion in small dices, add to the tomato dices.
- Remove the leaves from the mint.
- Crush the garlic cloves, grate and squeeze the lemon. Chop the mint leaves; mix with the olive oil, garlic, fresh pepper, salt, lemon juice and lemon zest. Pour half of the mixture over the chicken and half over the tomatoes and red onion. Let the meat and the tomatoes marinate for at least 30 minutes.
- When ready to cook, place the chicken on a hot grill for 1 to 2 minutes per side to get nice markings on the breasts. Remove from the grill and put on a small sheet pan. Pour any remaining marinade over the chicken.
- Place in a 350°F oven for 7 to 10 minutes, depending on the thickness of the breast.
- Once the chicken is cooked, allow the meat to rest for about five minutes. Mix the chicken's cooking juices with the tomatoes. Slice the chicken and place on a plate, cover with the marinated tomatoes and drizzle remaining tomato marinade over all. Serve with mint-infused couscous.
