• In a large zip-top bag, combine yogurt, garlic, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, and 3/4 teaspoon pepper. Set aside 1/2 cup and refrigerate until ready to serve (or up to 1 day). Add chicken to bag and toss to coat. Refrigerate at least 8 hours (or up to 1 day).
• Heat a grill or grill pan to medium-high; clean and lightly oil hot grill. Remove chicken from marinade, scraping off excess. Grill chicken, covered, until cooked through, about 4 minutes per side. Let rest, covered, 10 minutes. Let 2 breasts cool, then wrap in plastic and chill for Tomato Gazpacho with Chicken.

GRILLED WATERMELON AND TOMATO SALAD

Steps:

• Prepare a charcoal grill outdoors for direct grilling over high heat. Or, indoors, place a grill pan over high heat until very hot.
• Using a 3 1/2 inch cookie cutter, cut the watermelon flesh into four rounds. Place on the grill grates or in grill pan, directly over the heat. Grill on one side only, until grill-marked, and the melon emits a slightly smoky aroma, about 2 minutes. Transfer rounds, grill-marked sides up, to a platter.
• Place the tomato batons or wedges in a large bowl and toss gently with 2 tablespoons of the olive oil. Season to taste with kosher salt, pepper, and lemon juice.
• Place a watermelon round, grill-marked side up, in the center of each of four appetizer plates. Top each with an equal portion of tomatoes. Drizzle each salad with 1/2 tablespoon of remaining olive oil, and top each with 1 teaspoon balsamic vinegar. Garnish with opal basil and green basil and a few grains of Maldon salt, and serve.
