Tender cubes of seasoned chicken tossed in greek yogurt for a creamy, flavorful and healthy dinner. 


Ingredients

Scale

Notes

I like to serve this chicken with tomato-cucumber salad and sliced pita. Here is how I make the salad: in a bowl stir together 1 medium cucumber, seeded and diced; 1 1/2 cups diced tomatoes; 1/2 tsp kosher salt; 1/2 tsp black pepper; 1 Tbsp olive oil; 1 Tbsp red wine vinegar.
