Ingredients
  

Marinade
  • 1 cup Greek yogurt plain, unsweetened
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice freshly squeezed
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
Chicken
  • 4 pieces chicken breasts boneless and skinless

Method
 

Marinate the Chicken
  1. In a mixing bowl, combine Greek yogurt, olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, oregano, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.
  2. Add the chicken breasts to the marinade, ensuring they are well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or overnight for best results.
Cook the Chicken
  1. Preheat the grill to medium-high heat or the oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Remove the chicken from the marinade and let excess marinade drip off.
  3. Grill the chicken for about 6-7 minutes per side, or bake in the oven for 25-30 minutes, until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).
  4. Let the chicken rest for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
