This Healthy Lemon Rosemary Greek Yogurt Baked Chicken is an easy chicken dinner that your family will love! Only 6 Ingredients needed!
Ugh, today was one of those days when everybody in my family is super busy and theres nothing for dinner. Usually when this happens I resort to my good old oatmeal, but that would leave my parents stuck with nothing.
Usually its my job to make dinner, but I’ve been having to work so much that I’ve haven’t had much time to eat, let alone cook. Thankfully, my mom defrosted some chicken breasts earlier that morning and we had tons of fresh rosemary growing outside.
It was like a sign sent from heaven, I saw a pin for greek yogurt marinated chicken and checked out the recipe. Easy to make, and only a few ingredients are needed? Heck yeah man.
Lemon Rosemary Greek Yogurt Baked Chicken
Making the marinate took a mere 2 1/2 minutes to make and the hardest part was waiting 2 hours! You can also make this the night before and let the chicken soak for longer if thats floats your boat! Either way, you’ll end up with a delicious dinner that will satisfy anyone! I guess you could say that this chicken saved me and my family from becoming hangry.

Great recipe, very yummy! Any suggestions for other ways to use the left over Miso paste? Marinade? Make into another type of sauce? Ideas??? It’s too good to not use up!
