Best 9 Chicken With Yogurt Laban Makoud Recipes

CHICKEN WITH YOGURT (LABAN MAKOUD)

Steps:

• In a 4- to 5-quart saucepan, combine chicken pieces, cardamom, 1 teaspoon white pepper and 1 teaspoon salt. Add just enough cold water to cover. Place over high heat to bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low. Simmer, partly covered, until chicken is opaque throughout, 15 to 20 minutes.
• Using a fork, transfer chicken to a platter. Remove 2 cups broth and pour into a clean saucepan. Add yogurt and cornstarch, and place over low heat. Bring to a simmer, stirring frequently, then add chicken and allow to thoroughly reheat for a few more minutes. Adjust salt and pepper as needed, and stir to coat chicken with sauce. Serve garnished with toasted pine nuts or almonds.

GRILLED LEMON YOGURT CHICKEN

Steps:

• Whisk together the 1/2 cup yogurt, the juice from 1/2 lemon, lemon zest, olive oil, garlic, paprika, herbes de Provence, 1 teaspoon salt, and black pepper in a bowl. Pour into a resealable plastic bag. Add chicken, coat with the marinade, squeeze out excess air, and seal the bag. Marinate in refrigerator for at least 3 hours.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat, and lightly oil the grate.
• Combine 1/2 cup yogurt, 1 tablespoon lemon juice, and harissa in a small bowl. Set aside.
• Remove chicken from bag and transfer to a plate or baking sheet lined with paper towels. Pat chicken pieces dry with more paper towels. Season with pinch of salt.
• Grill chicken, skin-side down, on the preheated grill for 2 minutes. Turn each piece and move to indirect heat.
• Grill, turning often, with lid down until well-browned and meat is no longer pink in the center, 30 to 35 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh, near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
• Serve chicken with the yogurt harissa mixture on the side.

SPICY YOGURT CHICKEN

Steps:

• With a sharp knife, make a few slashes in each drumstick. Mix the remaining ingredients in a bowl, season to taste. Add the drumsticks, rubbing the mixture well into the meat. If you have time, cover and chill for 30 mins.
• Remove the drumsticks from the marinade, shaking off the excess. Cook them on the barbecue for 20-25 mins, turning occasionally, until cooked through.

YOGURT CHICKEN

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Place yogurt in a small bowl and stir until creamy smooth. Add lemon and stir together. (Note: If you do not stir the yogurt first, the lemon juice will make the yogurt curdle.) In a separate shallow dish or bowl combine the bread crumbs, garlic powder and salt to taste; mix together.
• In a 9x13 inch baking dish place 1 scant pat of butter or margarine for each chicken breast. Rinse chicken breasts and pat dry. Dip each breast in the lemon/yogurt mixture, then in the bread crumb mixture (coating completely but not heavily).
• Place coated chicken in the baking dish and top each breast with a full pat of butter or margarine. Sprinkle with chopped parsley and bake in the preheated oven for 1 hour. Let cool for 5 to 10 minutes before serving.

MIDDLE EASTERN YOGURT CHICKEN

Steps:

• Whisk together yogurt, olive oil, vinegar, oregano, green onion, cumin, salt, paprika, black pepper, and cayenne pepper in a large glass or ceramic bowl. Add the chicken breast halves and toss to evenly coat. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator 1 hour to overnight.
• Preheat an oven to 500 degrees F (260 degrees C). Grease a shallow baking dish.
• Remove chicken from the marinade and shake off excess. Discard used marinade. Arrange chicken in prepared baking dish.
• Bake in preheated oven until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 25 minutes, turning occasionally. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Garnish with spearmint before serving.

GRILLED CHICKEN WITH YOGURT MARINADE

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine the yogurt, garlic, oregano, thyme, olive oil, salt and pepper. Zest the lemon over the bowl, reserving the rest of the lemon for serving. Whisk until smooth.
• Add the chicken thighs, toss to coat, then cover and refrigerate for at least 3 hours, or up to 24. Remove chicken from the refrigerator 30 minutes before cooking.
• If using a grill, clean and oil the grates. Set the grill to medium-high or heat a grill pan slicked with olive oil on the stovetop over medium-high. Grill the chicken for 6 to 8 minutes on each side (depending on the thickness of the thighs), covering the grill halfway through if necessary to retain heat, until cooked through.
• Transfer the chicken thighs to a platter and squeeze half the lemon over them. Sprinkle with salt, pepper and parsley, and serve with lemon wedges on the side if desired.
