Description

A simple yet flavorful marinated chicken made with just three ingredients: yogurt, salt, and chicken.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup plain yogurt
  • 2 teaspoons salt
  • 2 pounds chicken (breasts or thighs)

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, combine plain yogurt and salt until the salt is fully dissolved.
  2. Add chicken pieces, ensuring they are thoroughly coated in the marinade.
  3. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour or overnight for best results.
  4. Preheat your grill or oven to medium-high heat. Cook chicken for about 10-15 minutes on each side until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).

Notes

For added flavor, consider marinating overnight. It’s also great for meal prep and can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days.
