Indulge in the creamy richness of Pollo al Yogurt for a delightful twist on your chicken dinner tonight!
Start by marinating the chicken in yogurt, olive oil, salt, black pepper, paprika, and oregano. Make sure the chicken is well coated. Let it sit for at least 30 minutes, or up to 4 hours in the refrigerator for deeper flavor.
While the chicken is marinating, finely chop the onion and garlic.
After marinating, heat some olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and garlic, and sauté for about 5 minutes until they become translucent.
Next, add the marinated chicken pieces to the skillet. Cook for about 5 minutes on each side until they are browned.
Once browned, squeeze the juice of one lemon over the chicken and reduce the heat to low. Cover the skillet and let it simmer for about 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through.
Check if the chicken is fully cooked by slicing into one piece to ensure there is no pink inside.
Once done, let it rest for 5 minutes before serving. This helps retain the juices of the chicken.
Serve the Pollo al Yogurt garnished with fresh herbs or lemon slices, if desired.
