Santa Fe Chicken

4 (6 ounce) chicken breasts, trimmed and lightly pounded
1 cup plain yogurt
1 tablespoons lime juice
1 tablespoon chili powder
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon ground chipotle or 1/4 teaspoon ground red pepper
1/2 cup chopped cilantro, divided
1/8 teaspoon Kosher salt

In a non-reactive bowl combine yogurt with the spices and 2 tablespoons chopped cilantro. Mix well. Add chicken and toss to coat. Cover and let stand 1 hour.

Lightly oil grill and preheat 5-10 minutes (or preheat broiler). Place marinated chicken pieces on heated grill or broiler pan. Cook chicken 3-4 minutes per side basting occasionally with juices.

Serve chicken sprinkled with remaining cilantro.
