Greek Grilled Chicken

This Greek grilled chicken is so delicious! It’s tender, moist and so flavorful! I wish I could just hand you a sample through the phone or computer screen or whatever you may be using right now, just so you could taste it because I know you would love it!

Wouldn’t that be cool if we could do a recipe sample on a blog, kind of like strolling through Costco during samples hour? I know I would love that, maybe someday we will get there, who knows! But since we aren’t that yet, let me tell you about this chicken.

This Greek grilled chicken is moist and tender and full of herby and savory flavor. The grill or smoker does the rest by providing the best smoky undertone to this chicken and caramelizing the yogurt marinate to make it extra scrumptious!

I love this chicken on it’s own, on a salad or wrapped in a pita for a fabulous grilled chicken pita! That recipe is coming very soon, stay tuned!
