Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Start by rinsing the chicken breast under cool water. Pat it dry with paper towels.
- Rinse the tomato under running water and pat it dry as well.
- Rub the chicken breast with the olive oil on all sides.
- Sprinkle the salt evenly over the chicken.
- If you're using an outdoor grill, preheat it to medium-high heat.
- Alternatively, if you're using an indoor grill pan, place it on the stove over medium-high heat until it’s hot.
- Place the seasoned chicken breast on the preheated grill.
- Grill the chicken for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).
- Remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes.
- While the chicken is grilling, slice the tomato into thick rounds or wedges, as you prefer.
- Optionally, season the tomato slices with a pinch of salt or olive oil.
- Place the grilled chicken breast on a plate.
- Arrange the sliced tomato next to the chicken.
- Add the low-fat cottage cheese on the side.
- Serve the grilled chicken with the fresh tomato and cottage cheese immediately.
Tips:
- Marinate the chicken: For extra flavor, consider marinating the chicken breast in olive oil, salt, and your favorite herbs or spices for at least 30 minutes before grilling.
- Use ripe tomatoes: Choose ripe tomatoes for a sweeter and juicier flavor. This will enhance the overall taste of the dish.
- Proper grilling: Grill the chicken over medium-high heat to ensure it cooks evenly and maintains its juiciness. Avoid overcooking to prevent the chicken from becoming dry.
- Serve immediately: Serve the grilled chicken hot with the fresh tomatoes and cottage cheese on the side for the best taste and texture.
- Experiment with flavors: Feel free to add additional herbs, such as basil or oregano, to the tomatoes and cottage cheese for added flavor.
In just a few simple steps, you can create a delectable and healthy dish that is sure to impress.
