Prepare The Marinade

Cup of Yum
1. Place the boneless skinless chicken breasts in a large mixing bowl, ensuring they have enough space to be evenly coated with the marinade.
2. Zest a lemon using a microplane. Then slice the lemon in half and squeeze its juice over the chicken.
3. Add in the minced garlic, dried oregano, chili flakes, kosher salt, and black pepper followed by the Greek yogurt and olive oil.
4. Using a pair of tongs, thoroughly mix the chicken and coat them in the flavorful marinade.
5. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid. Refrigerate the marinated chicken for at least 30 minutes, or up to 8 hours.
6. Remove the chicken from the marinade and cook it using your preferred method, such as grilling, baking, pan-searing or air fry.

Grill

1. Preheat the grill to medium-high and allow the marinated chicken to sit at room temperature on the counter.
2. Once the grill is ready, place the marinated chicken on the grates and grill for 5-7 minutes on each side. The chicken is ready once the internal temperature registers at 165°F in the thickest part of the chicken and it’s no longer pink inside.
3. Remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

Roast

1. Preheat the oven to 425°F and lightly coat a baking sheet with cooking spray.
2. Using tongs, take the chicken pieces out of the marinade and shake them allowing any excess to drip off.
3. Place the chicken on the baking sheet and bake in the oven for 25-30 minutes until fully cooked.

Pan Sear

1. Heat a cast iron skillet or a heavy bottom pan over medium-high heat. There is no need to add oil to the pan.
2. Place the marinated chicken pieces in the pan and sear for 5-8 minutes on one side, undisturbed. Don’t move the chicken around allowing a golden crust to form.
3. Flip the chicken and sear for 5-8more minutes until cooked completely.

Air Fry

1. Preheat the air fryer to 370℉. Let the marinated chicken sit on the counter for 15 minutes before cooking.
2. Once ready to cook, take the chicken out and shake off the excess marinade. Place the chicken pieces in the air fryer basket and air fry at 370℉ for 20 minutes, flipping halfway through, until it's completely cooked and the internal temperature registers at 165℉.
