Using a classic Green Goddess dressing as a marinade for roasted chicken results to a perfect, herby, juicy dinner.
Ingredients
- 1 whole chicken, cut into two halves (or a combination of bone-in breasts and thighs)
- 1 cup Greek yogurt
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1 lemon, juiced
- 1 lemon, wedged
- 2 cloves garlic
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 1 teaspoon pepper
- 2 cups fresh herbs (I like parsley, basil, dill and thyme)
Instructions
- In a food processor blend the yogurt, sour cream, lemon juice, garlic, salt and pepper. Add the chicken to a large food storage bag and pour the Green Goddess dressing over to coat. Marinade for 1 hour or up to overnight.
- Heat the oven to 425 degrees.
- Add the chicken to a roasting pan and roast for 45 minutes or until cooked to an internal temp of 165 degrees. Rest the chicken for 10 minutes before slicing.
- Serve with lemon wedges.
