Heart healthy and full flavored…it’s Greek to you! Marinated for moistness, chicken breasts say “opaa” when sauced with tangy low-fat yogurt spiked with fresh herbs and the Vitamin C and Limonene of lemon juice and lemon peel. Serves 4.

Recipe Ingredients

• 1 cup plain low-fat yogurt
• 2 tablespoons finely grated lemon peel
• 1½ tablespoon lemon juice
• 2 tablespoons oregano and parsley, finely chopped
• 1 clove garlic, minced
• ¼ teaspoon salt
• ¼ teaspoon ground pepper
• 1 pound chicken breasts, boneless, skinless

Recipe Directions

1. Combine the yogurt, lemon peel and juice, oregano, parsley, garlic, salt and pepper.
2. Put the chicken into a dish and spread about ¼ cup of the yogurt sauce over the chicken. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate several hours or overnight. Cover and refrigerate the remaining yogurt sauce.
3. Place the chicken on a rack in a baking pan and bake in a preheated 375°F oven for 30 minutes.
4. Turn the oven on to broil and continue cooking about 5 minutes, until the chicken is browned and cooked through. (Adjust the rack higher if necessary)
5. Spoon the remaining yogurt sauce over the chicken and serve with veggie confetti salad.
