Instructions

  1. Step 1: In a bowl, whisk together 3 tbsp olive oil, 2 tbsp lemon juice, 1 tsp dried oregano, 3 minced garlic cloves, 1 tsp salt, and 1/2 tsp black pepper. Add 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts and coat evenly. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
  2. Step 2: Preheat grill or grill pan to medium-high heat (about 400°F). Grill the chicken breasts for 6-7 minutes per side until internal temperature reaches 165°F and grill marks appear.
  3. Step 3: While chicken grills, make tzatziki by mixing 1 cup Greek yogurt, 1/2 cup grated and well-drained cucumber, 2 tbsp chopped fresh dill, 1 tsp lemon zest, and 1 minced garlic clove in a bowl. Stir until combined and refrigerate.
  4. Step 4: Serve grilled chicken topped with 2 tbsp tzatziki sauce per serving alongside a fresh salad or pita bread.
