**Chicken breasts can be used instead of the thighs. You will need 2 whole chicken breasts (about 2 pounds). To remove bones from chicken thighs, cut down the center of the thigh to the bone; separate the meat from the bone. Cucumbers are generally eaten raw in United States, but they are luscious cooked with chicken.
