Crispy Roasted Chicken Thighs with Creamy Greek Yogurt Orzo
Savor the comforting blend of a perfectly roasted chicken thigh paired with a bowl of tender orzo infused with a tangy Greek yogurt sauce. This dish strikes a delightful balance between crispy savory and creamy refreshment, enhanced by zesty lemon and fresh herbs.
INGREDIENTS
1 skinless, boneless chicken thigh (150g)
40 grams dry orzo
1/4 cup nonfat Greek yogurt
1 teaspoon olive oil
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon garlic powder
Salt and pepper to taste
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
PREPARATION
Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
In a small bowl, mix the olive oil, lemon juice, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
Pat the chicken thigh dry and rub it evenly with the olive oil mixture.
Place the chicken thigh on a baking sheet and roast for 25-30 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) and the edges are crispy.
While the chicken roasts, cook the orzo according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
In a separate bowl, stir the nonfat Greek yogurt into the warm orzo to create a creamy texture. Adjust salt and lemon juice to taste.
Slice the roasted chicken thigh and serve it atop the creamy Greek yogurt orzo.
Garnish with chopped fresh parsley and enjoy your balanced, flavorful meal.
