Ingredients
  • 1 1/2 cups plain low-fat yogurt, DIVIDED (I use Greek yogurt)
  • 4 garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 teaspoon ground turmeric
  • 2 teaspoon ground ginger
  • Coarse salt and ground pepper
  • 4 bone-in, skinless chicken breasts halves (10 to 12 ounces each) **(I used 8 boneless, skinless thighs)
  • 2 Granny Smith apples
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro

Directions
  1. Preheat oven to 475° (I cooked the thighs at 425 for 30 minutes).
  2. In a bowl or large ziptop bag, mix 1 cup yogurt, the garlic, turmeric, ginger and 3 tsp salt and 1/2 tsp pepper. Add the chicken, making sure to coat it all evenly. Marinate for a couple hours or overnight.
  3. Transfer chicken to a rimmed baking sheet.
  4. Bake until 160 degrees or the juices are no longer pink, about 30 minutes.
  5. Peel and coarsely grate the apple into a bowl.
  6. Add the remaining 1/2 cup yogurt and cilantro, mix well, and serve with the chicken.
