Baked Lemon And Yogurt Chicken Strips Recipes

BAKED LEMON AND YOGURT CHICKEN STRIPS

Steps:

• Cut the chicken breast into strips (you'll wash them in a later step). Thicker strips will take a bit longer to bake.
• Put the chicken strips into a bowl and mix in 1/2 cup of lemon juice. With your hands, really mix the chicken with the lemon juice and allow to sit for 5 minutes.
• Wash the chicken strips well, removing any membranes or fatty bits. Remove as much of the excess water and dry the strips.
• Put the chicken into a clean bowl and sprinkle with lemon juice and add the yogurt and garlic. Season with salt and pepper. Mix well and put in the refrigerator for 1 hour.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees and prepare a baking sheet by spraying with cooking spray.
• Bread the chicken strips by dredging them in the crushed crackers or cornflake crumbs.
• Place the strips onto the baking pan and sprinkle lightly with the melted butter.
• Bake for 15 to 20 minutes until cooked through. Larger pieces might take longer to cook, smaller pieces might take less time.

YOGURT BAKED CHICKEN

Steps:

• Place chicken breasts into a baking dish in a sigle layer.
• In a small bowl, combine the seasonings, green onions, lemon juice, and yogurt.
• Pour the yogurt/seasoning mixture over the chicken breasts, turning them over to coat well with the yogurt mixture.
• For best results, cover and chill for a few hours to allow flavors to blend.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Uncover the chicken and bake for 1 hour or until chicken is done.

LEMON, YOGURT, AND DILL CHICKEN THIGHS WITH ROASTED VEGGIES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Lightly grease a rimmed baking sheet.
• Place potatoes, onion, carrots, and radishes in a large bowl. Drizzle with oil, and toss to coat. Sprinkle with 1 teaspoon dill, 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Toss again to coat. Pour veggies out onto the prepared baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes.
• While the veggies bake, prepare the chicken. In the same bowl the veggies were in, add the Greek yogurt, lemon zest, lemon juice, 1 teaspoon dill, 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt, onion powder, garlic powder, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Mix until thoroughly combined. Dip each chicken thigh into the yogurt mixture, making sure each one is evenly coated.
• Remove pan from the oven, and gently push the veggies to the sides of the pan, leaving room in the middle for the chicken thighs. Place the thighs in the middle of the baking sheet, and place pan back into the oven until chicken is no longer pink in the center, and veggies are tender, 30 to 40 minutes more. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of each thigh should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). If desired, place pan beneath broiler, and broil chicken for a few minutes to brown the chicken. Season with additional salt and pepper to taste before serving.
