Ingredients

    1 cup fat free greek yogurt
    1 Tbsp lemon juice
    2 tsp cumin
    1 tsp cinnamon
    2 tsp cayenne pepper
    2 tsp black pepper
    1 tsp ground ginger
    1 tsp salt, or to taste
    1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breast, cut into small pieces

    1 Tbsp country crock + calcium
    1 Tbsp minced garlic
    1 jalapeno pepper, finely chopped
    2 tsp cumin
    2 tsp paprika
    1/2 tsp salt, or to taste
    1 (8 oz) can tomato sauce
    1 cup fat free half and half

Directions

In a large bowl, combine yogurt, lemon juice, 2 teaspoons cumin, cinnamon, cayenne, black pepper, ginger, and 1 teaspoon salt. Stir in chicken, cover, and refrigerate for 1 hour.

Preheat foreman grill and spray with cooking spray. Thread chicken onto skewers, and discard marinade. Grill until juices run clear, about 5 minutes on each side.

Melt margarine in a large heavy skillet over medium heat. Saute garlic and jalapeno for 1 minute. Season with 2 teaspoons cumin, paprika, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Stir in tomato sauce and cream. Simmer on low heat until sauce thickens, about 20 minutes. Add grilled chicken, and simmer for 10 minutes.
