Description

Juicy and tender chicken thighs marinated in yogurt, creating a flavorful and easy dish perfect for gatherings.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 chicken thighs
  • 1 cup plain yogurt
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon paprika

Instructions

  1. Mix together the yogurt, olive oil, garlic, paprika, cumin, salt, and pepper in a bowl.

Notes

For best results, marinate the chicken for at least 2 hours, and leave some space on the baking sheet for extra crispiness.
