This is one of my favorite chicken recipes to make. It's so easy, and low in calories, and carbs (but not in taste). Enjoy!
Ingredients:
2 -2 1/2 tablespoons dijon mustard
1/4-1/2 cup low-fat plain yogurt
4 boneless skinless chicken thighs (i usually use chicken breast instead)
1 grated lemon rind from 1/2 of a lemon
1/2 of a lemon, juiced
4 tablespoons chopped basil
Directions:
1. In a small bowl, combine the mustard and yogurt.
2. Place chicken thighs in an oven-proof dish (at least 1 1/2 deep).
3. Pour yogurt mixture over chicken.
4. Sprinkle with lemon rind, juice and chopped basil.
5. Add black pepper to taste, if desired.
6. Bake in a moderately hot 375ºF oven for 25 minutes.
