Step 1

Whisk all of the Marinade ingredients together in a large bowl or freezer size plastic bag. Add chicken and turn to coat. Marinate in the refrigerator 4 to 24 hours. Let chicken sit at room temperature for 20-30 minutes before cooking.

Step 2

Make the yogurt sauce and prep your sides while the chicken is marinating. Add all of the Sauce Ingredients to a blender and blend until the herbs are chopped, scraping down the sides of the blender as needed. If you would like a thicker sauce, stir (don’t blend) in additional yogurt. Cover and chill in the refrigerator until you’re ready to serve.

Step 3

Grease and preheat the grill to medium heat, 400-450°F. Grill chicken, covered for 5-7 minutes per side, or until chicken is cooked through to an internal temperature of 170 degrees F on an instant read thermometer. Transfer chicken to a cutting board and let rest 5 minutes before slicing.

Step 4

Heat one tablespoon vegetable oil a large cast iron skillet or grill pan over medium high heat. Working in batches, add chicken in a single layer and cook for 4-5 minutes. Turn chicken over, cover, and reduce heat to medium. Cook approximately 3-5 additional minutes (depending on thickness of chicken), or until chicken is cooked through to an internal temperature of 170 degrees F on an instant read thermometer. Transfer chicken to a cutting board and let rest 5 minutes before slicing.

Step 5

Line a baking sheet with foil and spray with cooking spray. Add chicken to baking sheet in a single layer so they aren’t touching. Bake at 425 degrees F for 20-25 minutes or until an internal temperature reaches 175 degrees F. Transfer chicken to a cutting board and let rest 5 minutes before slicing.
