Lemon-Herb Greek Chicken Thighs with Rice
Tender chicken thighs marinated in zesty Greek yogurt and lemon, seared until golden and served over a bed of fluffy, aromatic rice.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz Boneless skinless chicken thighs
0.25 cup Plain Greek yogurt
1 tbsp Lemon juice
1 tsp Lemon zest
2 cloves Garlic
1 tsp Dried oregano
0.5 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
1 tbsp Extra virgin olive oil
0.25 cup Dry white rice
0.5 cup Chicken broth
1 tbsp Fresh parsley
PREPARATION
In a small bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, lemon juice, lemon zest, minced garlic, dried oregano, sea salt, and black pepper.
Place the chicken thighs in a shallow dish or resealable bag and coat thoroughly with the yogurt marinade. Let sit for at least 20 minutes in the refrigerator.
While the chicken marinates, combine the dry rice and chicken broth in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes or until liquid is absorbed. Fluff with a fork.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Remove chicken from marinade, wiping off any excess so it sears properly.
Add the chicken to the skillet and cook for 5-7 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F and the exterior is golden brown.
Let the chicken rest for 3 minutes before slicing.
Serve the chicken over the warm rice and garnish with freshly chopped parsley.
