Tzatziki Marinated Chicken Recipe
Report
Using tzatziki to marinate chicken is one of my favorite kitchen hacks. I often have a container of store-bought tzatziki in my fridge, so I can start marinating the chicken in minutes. The yogurt in the tzatziki is a natural meat tenderizer, so this chicken always turns out flavorful and juicy.

Ingredients
Tzatziki Chicken
- 2 boneless chicken breasts
- ¼ cup store-bought tzatziki plus extra for dipping
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- ½ teaspoon each: salt and pepper
Greek Veggies
- 2 bell peppers chopped
- 1 medium zucchini chopped
- ½ medium red onion chopped
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes cut in half
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
- ½ teaspoon each: sea salt and pepper
- ½ cup pitted kalamata olives
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit. Place the chicken breasts in a bowl and toss with the tzatziki, olive oil, salt, and pepper.
- Chop the peppers, zucchini, red onion, and cherry tomatoes and add them to a 13x18" baking sheet. Toss them with olive oil, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper.
- Nestle the chicken amongst the veggies and bake for 18-22 minutes, until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Remove the baking sheet from the oven and sprinkle the olives around the chicken. Serve the chicken with extra tzatziki on the side for dipping.
Notes
- Tzatziki: Pick up some store-bought tzatziki to make your dinner a breeze. I like Summer Fresh Tzatziki. Or, for a twist on this recipe, try it with my mint tzatziki.
