The yogurt creates a creamy coating while the saffron adds plenty of flavor and a distinctive yellow color. GOOD TO KNOW: Using fat-free yogurt saves you 8 grams of fat but still gives you the calcium boost. Serve this dish with a side of whole-grain rice for extra fiber. Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups greek yogurt or 1 1/2 cups plan whole-milk yogurt |
1 teaspoon saffron thread, crushed |
1 garlic clove, minced |
4 (6 ounce) boneless skinless chicken breast halves |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/8 teaspoon pepper |
cooking spray |
Directions:
1. Preheat broiler. Combine 1 1/2 cups yogurt, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/8 teaspoon pepper, a pinch of saffron, and garlic in a large bowl. Add chicken, tossing to coat. Let stand at room temperature for 15 minutes. Place chicken on a broiler pan coated with cooking spray. Broil for 10 minutes per side, or until the chicken is cooked through and the surface is browned.
