Baked Greek Yogurt Chicken: Juicy, Flavor-Packed Perfection

Instructions

Step 1: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a baking dish.

Step 2: In a medium bowl, whisk together Greek yogurt, olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, oregano, salt, pepper, and lemon juice.

Step 3: Pat the chicken breasts dry and place them in a large zip-top bag or shallow dish. Pour the yogurt marinade over the chicken and ensure each piece is well coated. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes (up to 8 hours for more flavor).

Step 4: Place the marinated chicken breasts in the prepared baking dish. Discard excess marinade.

Step 5: Bake uncovered for 25–30 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) and the chicken is lightly golden on top.

Step 6: Let rest for 5 minutes before serving. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired.
