Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1.5 lbs)
  • 1 cup plain full-fat yogurt
  • 2 tsp ground cumin
  • 2 tsp paprika
  • 1 tsp chili powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1/4 cup fresh dill, chopped
  • 4 oz feta cheese, crumbled
  • 1 lb baby potatoes (Yukon Gold or red)
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • Juice of 1 lemon

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, mix yogurt, cumin, paprika, chili powder, salt, and pepper until smooth.
  2. Add chicken breasts to the marinade and coat well. Cover and refrigerate for at least one hour or overnight for maximum flavor.
  3. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Rinse and halve the baby potatoes.
  4. Toss halved potatoes with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread evenly on a parchment-lined baking sheet and roast for about 25-30 minutes until golden and crispy.
  5. Heat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Remove chicken from marinade and cook for about 6-7 minutes per side until fully cooked (internal temperature should reach at least 165°F).
  6. In a small bowl, combine crumbled feta cheese, chopped dill, lemon juice, and some Greek yogurt to achieve desired creaminess.
  7. Serve grilled chicken with crispy potatoes topped with dill feta cream.
