Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup plain yogurt
  • 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tbsp paprika
  • 1 tsp cayenne pepper
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • 1 tsp ground coriander
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 2 tbsp olive oil for marinade
  • 1 lb baby potatoes
  • 2 tbsp olive oil for potatoes
  • 1/2 cup Greek yogurt
  • 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
  • 2 tbsp fresh dill, chopped
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • Salt to taste
  • Black pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Whisk together the marinade: combine the plain yogurt, lemon juice, minced garlic, paprika, cayenne pepper, ground cumin, ground coriander, salt, black pepper, and 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large bowl.
  2. Marinate the chicken: Add the chicken breasts, coating them evenly in the marinade. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
  3. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and prepare the potatoes: wash and halve them, then toss with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, salt, and black pepper.
  4. Roast the potatoes: spread them cut side down on a baking sheet and roast for 20 to 25 minutes until golden and crispy.
  5. Cook the chicken: heat a large skillet over medium-high, remove the chicken from the marinade, and shake off excess. Cook for 6 to 7 minutes per side until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).
  6. Rest the chicken for 5 minutes on a plate to keep the juices locked in.
  7. Prepare the dill feta cream: mix Greek yogurt, crumbled feta cheese, dill, lemon juice, and minced garlic in a small bowl, seasoning with salt and black pepper.
  8. Serve the dish by slicing the chicken and serving alongside crispy potatoes, topped with dill feta cream.

Notes

For enhanced flavor, marinate the chicken overnight. Adjust cayenne pepper for desired heat.
