Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup nonfat Greek yogurt
  • 2 garlic cloves (minced)
  • 1 lemon (halved)
  • 1 tablespoon McCormick Gourmet Cajun seasoning (divided)
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried herbs (such as herbs de Provence)
  • 8 boneless skinless chicken thighs (trimmed of fat (36 ounces total))

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. In a blender or jar (if using an immersion blender), combine the yogurt, garlic,juice from half the lemon, and 1/2 tablespoon of the cajun seasoning and blend until smooth. Reserve the other lemon half for serving.
  2. Put the chicken in a large dish that will fit it in an even layer. Pour the yogurt marinade over the chicken and toss to coat, making sure each piece is completely coated.
  3. Cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, and up to 6.
  4. When you're ready to air fry, lightly oil the air fryer basket.
  5. Remove the chicken from the dish and remove all but a thin layer of the marinade. Season with the remaining 1/2 tablespoon of the cajun seasoning, paprika and dried herbs.
  6. Air fry the thighs 400°F in a single layer, in batches as needed for 14 minutes, flipping half way or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F and both sides are browned.
  7. Once cooked, cut the remaining lemon half into wedges, and serve alongside the chicken.
