Chicken Thighs Marinated in Yogurt




It's been very cold here in KS so I've been looking for some easy healthy recipes.  I stumbled upon this one on Pinterest, sorry I forgot to get the blog it came from.  I like dishes that you don't have to fuss much with and can just pop in the oven.  I may make some sort of potato to pop in the oven to go with this....or may just have a salad. 


Ingredients
1 cup plain yogurt
2 Tbsp olive oil

4 cloves garlic, minced
½ Tbsp dried oregano
1 medium lemon
½ tsp salt
freshly cracked pepper
¼ bunch fresh parsley
4-6 chicken thighs
Instructions
  1. To make the marinade, combine the yogurt, olive oil, minced garlic, oregano, salt, and some freshly cracked pepper in a bowl. Put lemon zest in bowl  . Also add the juice from half of the lemon (about 1-2 Tbsp). Stir until the ingredients are well combined. Roughly chop a big handful, or about ¼ bunch, of parsley and stir it into the marinade.
  2. Add the chicken pieces and marinade to a gallon sized zip top bag. Remove as much air as possible, close the bag tightly, and massage the bag to mix the contents and make sure the chicken is well coated. Refrigerate the bag for 30 minutes.
  3. After marinating for 30 minutes, either cook the chicken on a grill OR preheat the oven to 375 degrees in preparation to bake the chicken.
  4. To bake the chicken, place the chicken pieces in a large casserole dish (9x13). Bake the chicken in the preheated 375 degree oven for 45-60 minutes, or until golden brown on top.

Thanks for stopping by, have a great week and always remember To Find the Time to Do all the Things YOU  L♥ve.
