Yogurt-marinated chicken
The magic of this dish lies in the marinade. Yogurt makes the chicken wonderfully tender and juicy, while thyme and garlic add just the right amount of depth and character. A touch of lemon juice brings a gentle freshness, creating a perfectly balanced flavour combination.
The best part? It takes very little effort. Mix the marinade, let the chicken soak up the flavours, then place it on the grill. The result is golden, lightly crispy on the outside and silky on the inside – especially delicious served with Cipriani sauce.
