My Zesty Taco Yoghurt Chicken Marinade π―π₯π
This one is full of punchy, fresh flavours β a proper balance of creamy, tangy, garlicky goodness with a little Mexican twist. It makes the chicken unbelievably tender and packed with flavour in every bite.
Ingredients
500g chicken (breast or thigh, cut into chunks or strips)
150g Greek yoghurt (full fat for the best flavour)
1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
Juice of Β½ lime
Juice of Β½ lemon
2 cloves fresh garlic, grated
Β½ tsp garlic powder
Β½ tsp onion powder
1 tsp dried oregano
1 tsp Mexican coriander (or fresh if you have it)
Salt & black pepper to taste
Method
In a bowl, mix together the Greek yoghurt, apple cider vinegar, lime juice and lemon juice until smooth.
Add the grated garlic, garlic powder, onion powder, oregano, coriander, salt and pepper, and give it a really good mix β it should smell amazing already!
Add your chicken and coat it well so every piece is covered in that beautiful marinade.
Cover and leave to marinate for at least an hour, but if you can leave it a few hours or overnight, itβs absolutely incredible.
Cook on the BBQ, in a hot pan, or in the oven at 200Β°C for around 20β25 minutes until golden, juicy and cooked through.
To serve
Pile into warm wraps with salad, maybe a drizzle of yoghurt, and a squeeze of lime over the top.
Little tip
This oneβs got a lovely zing from the citrus and vinegar β if you fancy a touch of sweetness, a tiny drizzle of honey balances it perfectly.
Fresh, zesty, and full of flavour β this is a proper keeper ππ₯
