Ingredients
Scale
Chicken
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
Creamy Dill Sauce
- 1/2 cup Greek yogurt
- 2 tablespoons fresh dill, chopped
- 1 tablespoon honey
Instructions
- Prepare the chicken: Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper on both sides to enhance their natural flavor.
- Marinate the chicken: In a bowl, combine olive oil, fresh lemon juice, and minced garlic. Place the chicken breasts into the mixture and marinate for at least 30 minutes, turning occasionally to ensure even coating and absorption of flavors.
- Grill the chicken: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Place the marinated chicken breasts on the grill and cook for 6-8 minutes per side or until they reach an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C), ensuring the chicken is thoroughly cooked and juicy.
- Make the creamy dill sauce: While the chicken is grilling, combine Greek yogurt, chopped fresh dill, and honey in a bowl. Mix well until the sauce is smooth and creamy, balancing tangy and sweet flavors.
- Serve: Place the grilled chicken breasts on serving plates and generously spoon the creamy dill sauce over the top. Serve immediately for a delicious and satisfying meal.
Notes
- Marinate the chicken for longer, up to 2 hours, for deeper flavor.
- You can substitute Greek yogurt with sour cream if preferred.
- Make sure the grill is properly preheated to prevent sticking and to achieve nice grill marks.
- Use a meat thermometer to ensure the chicken is cooked through without overcooking.
- Serve with a side of grilled vegetables or a fresh salad for a complete meal.
