Lemony Yogurt Chicken Recipe

by Mom-a-Licious Chef Domenica Catelli

Ingredients:
3 cups plain organic yogurt (low fat or whole milk)
Juice of two lemons
2 teaspoons granulated garlic
2 tsp kosher salt
4-6 boneless skinless chicken breasts, or 1-2 lbs. shrimp or beef
*chopped fresh herbs (basil, mint and Italian parsley are good choices), optional

Process:

  1. Place yogurt, lemon, garlic and salt in a medium glass bowl and mix. (You can also use a large re-sealable plastic bag). Reserve ½ cup of mixture.
  2. Add chicken, shrimp or lamb.
  3. Marinate for 30 minutes to six hours (the longer the marinating the more flavor to the meat and the less cooking time).
  4. Heat the grill to high and turn to medium before cooking meat.
  5. Add meat to grill and cook 2-7 minutes per side depending on meat. (Shrimp approximately 2 minutes per side, boneless skinless breast and beef 4-7 minutes depending on thickness).

Finish with fresh herbs and serve with remaining yogurt sauce and fresh lemon wedges.
