Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Start with the chicken since this requires at least 3 hours of marinating time. Place the chicken breasts in a large bowl. Add the yogurt, lemon juice, garlic powder, dried oregano, salt, and pepper.

  4. When ready to cook the chicken, preheat the oven to 340°F. Line a small baking tray with greased foil or parchment paper.
  5. Heat the olive oil in a griddle or stainless steel pan over high heat. Fry the chicken breasts on both sides until charred. Remove and place onto the prepared baking tray. They are far from safely cooked through, which is why we place the tray into the oven to finish cooking for another 15-18 minutes. This method will result in succulent breasts. Once done, leave to rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

  6. While the chicken is in the oven, make a quick dressing. Simply whisk together all the ingredients.
