Ingredients

1 cup plain Greek yogurt

2 tbsp olive oil

3 cloves garlic, minced

1 tbsp fresh lemon juice

1 tbsp fresh herbs (such as dill, parsley, or cilantro), finely chopped

1 tsp ground cumin

1 tsp paprika

1 tspturmeric (optional, for color and flavor)

Salt and pepper to taste

Directions

Combine Ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, fresh herbs, ground cumin, paprika, and turmeric (if using) until well combined.

Season: Add salt and pepper to taste, and give it another good mix.

Marinate the Chicken or Fish: Place your chicken pieces or fish fillets in a large resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish. Pour the yogurt marinade over, ensuring everything is well coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, preferably longer, to allow the flavors to penetrate.

Cooking Instructions:

For Chicken: Grill, bake, or pan-fry the marinated chicken until fully cooked and golden brown. Depending on the size and cut of the chicken, this typically takes about 20-30 minutes at 375°F (190°C).

For Fish: Grill, bake, or pan-fry the marinated fish until fully cooked and flaky. Cooking time varies depending on the thickness of the fillets, but generally takes about 10-15 minutes at 375°F (190°C).
