A flavorful and easy-to-make chicken recipe marinated in a tangy yogurt and lemon blend, perfect for a quick and healthy meal.
In a mixing bowl, combine the yogurt, juice and zest of the lemon, cumin, coriander, red pepper flakes, black pepper, salt, and minced garlic.
Use a whisk to ensure the marinade is smooth and well-blended.
Place the chicken breasts in a plastic bag and pour the marinade over them. Seal the bag and massage to coat the chicken evenly.
Ensure the chicken is fully submerged in the marinade for maximum flavor.
Refrigerate the marinated chicken for at least 2 hours or overnight for best results.
Place the bag on a plate to catch any leaks during marination.
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Remove the chicken from the marinade and discard the excess marinade.
Oil the grill grates to prevent sticking.
Grill the chicken for 6-8 minutes per side, or until fully cooked and lightly charred.
Use a meat thermometer to ensure the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
Serve the grilled chicken with your choice of sides, such as rice, pasta, or a fresh salad. Enjoy your meal!
Garnish with fresh herbs like parsley or cilantro for added freshness.
