The recipe calls for breast. Not a chicken breast guy myself so I use boneless thighs or boneless leg meat. Legs and thighs, yup, that's what I like.... especially when it comes to chicken.....
Ingredients
- 4 skinless, boneless chicken breast,( or a couple of pounds of boneless thighs or boneless leg meat my preferred over breasts... more flavor) shopping list
- 1 (6 ounce) container plain low-fat yogurt , (I use Greek. Thicker and again more flavor) shopping list
- 1 lemon, juiced shopping list
- 1 cup dried bread crumbs, seasoned shopping list
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, or 3-4 fresh garlic cloves crushed and chopped very fine ( my preference) shopping list
- salt and fresh ground black pepper to taste shopping list
- 1/4 cup butter,melted. shopping list
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley shopping list
How to make it
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees F Place yogurt in a small and stir until creamy smooth. Add lemon and stir together. (Note: If you do not stir the yogurt first, the lemon juice will make the yogurt curdle.)
- In a separate shallow dish or bowl combine the bread crumbs, garlic powder and salt to taste; mix together.
- Rinse chicken breasts and pat dry.
- Dip each breast in the lemon / yogurt mixture, then in the bread crumb mixture (coating completely but not heavily).
- Place coated chicken on an oiled rack placed in a cookie sheet or baking pan and top with melted butter.
- Sprinkle with chopped parsley and bake in the preheated oven for 30 to 45 minutes or until you are satisfied chicken is cooked.

Sounds good, Mickey. I'll put it on my very long to make list.

We really, really enjoyed this chicken. I used 4 cloves of fresh garlic and Italian seasoned bread crumbs. This method produced extremely moist chicken breasts with tons of flavour. Thanks for sharing, Mikey.
