Recipe Day! Yogurt Marinated Chicken

Great for those of you who like to fire up the BBQ all year round! (Broiling in the oven would probably work well, too).

Serves 4

Ingredients:
¾ cup / 175 g Compliments Balance yogurt, plain
1 tbsp Oregano, chopped
2 tsp Compliments canola oil
1 medium Lemon, juice of and zest of, grated
2 cloves Garlic, minced
½ tsp Black pepper
0.8 lb / 400 g Chicken breasts, skinless, boneless
4 Lemon wedges

Directions:
1. In large bowl, whisk yogurt, oregano, oil, lemon zest, juice, garlic, and pepper.

2. Add chicken; turn to coat. Cover and refrigerate for at least one hour (the longer it is marinated, the better). Turn to coat occasionally.

3. Place chicken on grill over medium heat; brush with remaining marinade. Close lid and grill, turning once, until no longer pink inside, about 12 minutes.

4. Serve with lemon wedges.
