Green Goddess Roasted Chicken

Aug 31, 2024

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

  1. 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.
  2. Heat the oven to 425 degrees.
  3. 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.
  4. Serve with lemon wedges.

Takes 55 minutes (plus 1 hour marinade)

Serves 4-6
