SKINNY GREEK YOGURT CHICKEN RECIPE - (4/5)



Skinny Greek Yogurt Chicken Recipe - (4/5) image

Provided by á-7895

Number Of Ingredients 7

Ingredients:
4 boneless/skinless chicken breasts
1 cup plain greek yogurt (I used Oikos)
1/2 cup parmesan cheese - grated
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 1/2 teaspoon seasoned salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper

Steps:

  • Directions: 1) Preheat oven to 375 degrees. 2) Combine greek yogurt, parmesan cheese, garlic powder, seasoned salt, and pepper in a bowl. 3) Line baking sheet with foil and spray lightly with cooking spray. 4) Coat each chicken breast in greek yogurt mixture and place on foiled baking sheet. 5) Bake for 45 minutes.

Tips:

  • Use a food processor or blender to quickly and easily shred the chicken. This will save you time and effort, and it will also help to ensure that the chicken is evenly shredded.
  • If you don't have a food processor or blender, you can also shred the chicken by hand. To do this, simply use two forks to pull the chicken apart into small pieces.
  • Be sure to season the chicken well. This will help to give it flavor and prevent it from becoming bland.
  • Don't overcook the chicken. Overcooked chicken will be dry and tough.
  • Serve the chicken immediately or store it in the refrigerator for later use.

Conclusion:

Skinny Greek yogurt chicken is a healthy and delicious dish that is perfect for a quick and easy meal. It is also a great way to use up leftover chicken. This dish is also very versatile and can be served with a variety of sides, such as rice, pasta, or vegetables.
