Prep:35minCook:30min

Mix up the bright herb mixture. Then use half to marinate the chicken and the other half to mix with Greek yogurt as a tasty dipping sauce. Note that if you're using chicken breasts instead of thighs, I recommend that you add an extra teaspoon of salt to the marinade mixture which will help make the breasts more tender and juicy. Be sure to marinate for the full hour.
