Step-By-Step Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, combine plain yogurt, olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, ground cumin, paprika, turmeric, ground coriander, salt, and pepper—whisk together until fully blended. Optionally, add fresh lemon juice.
- Take your chicken breasts or thighs and place them into the bowl with the yogurt marinade. Coat thoroughly and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight.
- Preheat your grill, grill pan, or oven to medium-high at 375°F (190°C).
- Once preheated, cook the marinated chicken on the grill for about 6-7 minutes on each side or bake for 20-25 minutes until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
- Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes, then slice and serve with your favorite sides.

Notes
Marinating overnight enhances flavor without compromising texture. Avoid moving the chicken too much while cooking for the best results.
