Method

Firstly, whisk the Greek yoghurt, olive oil, garlic, one tablespoon of lemon juice from the jar, oregano, salt and black pepper together in a bowl.

Next, place the chicken breasts into an airtight container then pour over the marinade, making sure the chicken breasts are submerged.

Then, top with six lemon slices from the jar and place in the fridge for at least eight hours to allow the flavours to develop. Heat the grill or BBQ on high and cook the chicken for 15-20 minutes, turning frequently.

Alternatively, air fry at 180°C for 18-20 minutes, turning after 10 minutes. Ensure the chicken is fully cooked through before serving. Finally, serve hot with a green salad, potatoes or vegetables.
