Greek Yogurt Chicken

• portions: 6 servings
• temps actif: 10 minutes
• temps total: 1 hour

Ingrédients

2 pounds bone-in chicken thighs (around 5-6 thighs total depending on their size)

5.3 ounces container Greek yogurt

2 Tablespoons lemon juice (or half if you don't like a strong lemon flavor + some extra lemon wedges for garnish)

1/4 cup olive oil

1 Tablespoon chopped fresh parsley + a little extra for garnish

1 1/2 teaspoons chopped fresh thyme (expert tip: if you have lemon thyme available its even better!)

1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

In a large bowl, whisk together Greek yogurt, lemon juice, olive oil, parsley, thyme, garlic powder, salt and pepper until well combined.

Add chicken pieces into the yogurt mixture and mix until the chicken is fully coated.

Marinate for at least 15 minutes, even better if it's overnight.

When you're ready to cook the chicken thighs, place them into a greased 9" x 13" baking pan, skin side up.

Bake at 425 degrees for 40-50 minutes or until golden brown and crispy with an internal temperature of 162 degrees. Or grill on a greased, preheated grill for 4-5 minutes per side or until golden brown and crispy with an internal temperature of 162 degrees.

Remove from the oven and rest for 5 minutes to bring the temperature up to 165 degrees. Garnish with additional lemon wedges and chopped parsley and serve immediately!
