  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tbsp Greek yogurt
  • 2 tbsp red wine vinegar
  • 2 tsp minced garlic
  • 2 tsp dried oregano
  • 1 tsp kosher salt

Instructions

  • STEP 2: In a large bowl or in a large zip lock bag, add the chicken and the marinade. Combine until all the chicken is coated in the marinade mixture. Leave in the fridge for a minimum of 30 minutes or overnight.
  • STEP 3: Heat your grill to medium-high heat. Coat the grill with some olive oil and start cooking the chicken. Place the chicken in the hot grill, first on one side and cook for 5 minutes.
