I don’t have a video for this recipe.
If I had a photo, I would most certainly use it. That is... unless the photo I have sucks. For now, you'll just have to picture a big heaping helping of

Grilled Chicken with Yogurt & Dukkah

Grilled Chicken with Yogurt & Dukkah

Chicken thighs are already one of the best things you can throw on a grill, and these marinated with garlic, lemon and oregano and then grilled until smoky and juicy - good start. But maybe the best part is they get served with a creamy lemon Greek yogurt, and finished with a dusting of crunchy, nutty dukkah - and if you dont know what dukkah is, just you wait. The whole thing is simple. It's ridiculously flavorful. And honestly... this is the kind of dinner that makes it look like you tried way harder than you actually did.

Serves 3-4

Ingredients

Chicken

  • 1/3 cup olive oil
  • 4 garlic cloves, minced
  • Zest of 1 lemon
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 2 teaspoons dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1 teaspoon soy sauce
  • Kosher salt & coarse ground black pepper
  • 1.5 pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs

Yogurt

  • 1 cup full-fat Greek yogurt
  • Zest of 1 lemon
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 small garlic clove, minced
  • 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt

Dukkah

  • See recipe here, you won't be sorry

Directions

  1. Combine all marinade ingredients, add chicken and mix well to cover - refrigerate 2-4 hours
  2. Put the yogurt ingredients in a bowl, mix well and refrigerate - the earlier you do it, the better is gets
  3. Heat grill to medium high and lightly coat grates with non-stick cooking spray
  4. Cook chicken, charring well on both sides until 175-185, remove and let rest 5 minutes
  5. Slice against the grain (if you can see the grain, sometimes it's tough but turning it bottom side up helps) and serve topped with the yogurt & dukkah
