Ingredients

For the Chicken

1 lb chicken breast, diced Use boneless, skinless chicken breast.
2 tbsp olive oil Use good extra-virgin for flavor.
4 cloves garlic, minced Fresh garlic gives an extra flavor boost.
Salt and pepper to taste
Fresh parsley, chopped For garnish, adds color and freshness.

For the Sauce

1 cup Greek yogurt Thick and tangy for a bright creamy sauce.
1-2 cloves garlic, minced Add to the yogurt for more garlic flavor.
Salt and pepper to taste

Method

Preparation

Place the diced chicken in a bowl, adding the olive oil, minced garlic, salt, and pepper. Toss well to coat the chicken evenly.
Preheat the grill or skillet over medium heat. If using a skillet, heat it until hot and just starting to smoke, then reduce to medium.

Cooking

Add the chicken bites in a single layer to the grill/skillet. Grill for about 5–7 minutes on each side until golden and fully cooked.
In another bowl, combine the Greek yogurt with additional minced garlic, seasoning with salt and pepper. Stir until smooth and creamy.

Serving

Serve the grilled chicken bites hot with the creamy garlic sauce spooned over them, garnished with fresh parsley.

Notes

Marinate the chicken for 30 minutes if possible for enhanced flavor. If chicken dries out, add a splash of chicken broth to the pan. For a smoky kick, add smoked paprika to the olive oil.
