DIRECTIONS
Pound chicken cutlets to even thickness. Combine olive oil, pickle juice, cumin, cayenne pepper, garlic and cilantro in a large bowl. Add chicken and toss until well-coated. Marinate in refrigerator for 1 hour or overnight.
Before grilling chicken, prepare salsa by whisking together dill pickle, tomato, Zinger, cilantro, red onion, red wine vinegar, olive oil and salt and pepper to taste. Set aside.
Remove chicken cutlets from marinade and grill over hot coals until golden brown on both sides and cooked through. Serve with salsa.
