Description
A savory and tender chicken dish marinated in Greek yogurt, garlic, and herbs that is baked to perfection.
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 cup Greek yogurt
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 lemon, juiced
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, minced garlic, olive oil, oregano, thyme, salt, black pepper, and lemon juice.
- Place the chicken breasts in a zip-top bag or shallow bowl. Pour the marinade over the chicken, ensuring every inch is coated. Seal tightly and refrigerate for at least one hour or overnight.
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Remove chicken from the marinade, allowing excess to drip off, and arrange in a single layer in a baking dish.
- Bake for 25 to 30 minutes until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). Let rest for a few minutes before slicing.
Notes
Marinate overnight for the best flavor. Use a meat thermometer to ensure your chicken is cooked properly.
