Green Goddess grilled chicken is a vibrant, herb-marinated dish featuring juicy grilled chicken infused with fresh herbs, garlic, lemon, and creamy yogurt or mayo. Perfect for warm weather meals, it’s flavorful, versatile, and easy to prepare.

Ingredients

  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs
  • 1/2 cup fresh parsley
  • 1/2 cup fresh basil
  • 1/4 cup fresh chives
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/2 cup Greek yogurt or mayonnaise
  • 1 teaspoon anchovy paste (optional)
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

  1. In a blender or food processor, combine parsley, basil, chives, garlic, lemon juice, olive oil, Greek yogurt or mayo, anchovy paste (if using), salt, and pepper. Blend until smooth.
  2. Place the chicken in a bowl or zip-top bag and pour the marinade over it. Refrigerate and marinate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 24 hours.
  3. Preheat the grill or grill pan over medium-high heat and lightly oil the grates.
  4. Remove the chicken from the marinade and grill for 5-7 minutes per side, or until fully cooked and charred.
  5. Let the chicken rest for a few minutes before slicing and serving.

Notes

  • Use cilantro and mint for a different herb profile.
  • Swap in dairy-free yogurt or mayo for a dairy-free version.
  • Bake at 400°F for 20-25 minutes if not grilling.
  • Leftovers are perfect for sandwiches, wraps, or salads.
