Something went wrong. Our team is working on it. Original recipe (1X) yields 8 servings ¼ cup plain yogurt ¼ cup lemon juice ¼ cup canola oil 3 tablespoons white vinegar 4 cloves garlic, crushed 1 teaspoon salt 1 teaspoon smoked paprika 1 teaspoon ground cumin 1 teaspoon dried oregano 2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts, sliced 2 tablespoons canola oil, or as needed Directions Combine yogurt, lemon juice, 1/4 cup oil, vinegar, garlic, salt, paprika, cumin, and oregano in a large glass or ceramic bowl; mix well. Add chicken and toss to evenly coat. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator for 8 hours to overnight. Remove chicken from the marinade and shake off excess. Discard the remaining marinade. Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook chicken in hot oil in batches until tender and browned, about 5 minutes per batch. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Recipe Tip Substitute thyme for oregano if preferred.
