Ingredients

  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon dried basil
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt

  • 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper

Instructions

  • In a large bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, oregano, basil, salt, and black pepper.

  • Grill the chicken for 6-8 minutes per side, or until cooked through and no longer pink in the center.
