Ingredients

Directions

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, chopped dill, lemon juice, garlic powder, and a pinch of salt and pepper to make the marinade.
  2. Add the chicken thighs and turn to coat thoroughly. Let sit for at least 10 minutes while you heat the grill (or marinate longer for more flavor).
  3. Preheat a grill to medium-high heat. Clean and oil the grates well to prevent sticking.
  4. Grill the chicken, covered, until nicely charred and cooked through, about 8–10 minutes per side, or until an instant-read thermometer in the thickest part registers 165°F.
  5. Transfer to a plate and rest for 5 minutes before serving.
