Yogurt Marinated Chicken

Serving Tip: Serve the chicken with a sprinkle of fresh herbs like parsley or thyme for added flavor and presentation.

Storage Tip: Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days. Reheat thoroughly before serving.

Variations:

Spicy Kick: Add a pinch of cayenne pepper or some chili flakes to the marinade for a spicy twist.

Herb Infusion: Mix in some fresh or dried herbs like rosemary, thyme, or oregano to elevate the flavor.

Grilled Lemon: Grill lemon halves alongside the chicken for extra smoky lemon flavor to squeeze over the chicken before serving.

FAQ:

Can I use boneless chicken pieces instead of a whole chicken? Yes! You can use boneless chicken breasts, thighs, or drumsticks. Adjust the cooking time accordingly—boneless cuts will cook faster than a whole chicken.

Can I marinate the chicken for longer than overnight? Yes, you can marinate the chicken for up to 24 hours. Just be sure not to exceed this time, as the yogurt might start to break down the texture of the meat if left for too long.
