Ingredients
- ½ cup plain Greek yogurt
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 tablespoon minced fresh garlic
- 1 teaspoon Diamond Crystal kosher salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- ⅛ teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 4 6 oz boneless skinless chicken breasts

Instructions
- In a shallow dish, whisk together the yogurt, olive oil, garlic, kosher salt, black pepper, paprika, cumin and cayenne.
- Add the chicken, turning it to make sure it's well-coated.
- Set aside to marinate for 30 minutes, or cover, place in the fridge and marinate for a few hours.
- Heat grill, dual-contact grill or grill pan on high heat, about 5 minutes. Spray the grill with olive oil spray. Grill the chicken breasts 4-6 minutes on each side, or for a total of 4-6 minutes on dual contact grill, until juicily cooked through and an instant-read thermometer registers 165 degrees F.
