INGREDIENTS

 

Chicken

  • ½ cup Greek yogurt
  • ¼ cup olive oil
  • juice and zest of ½ large lemon
  • 1 clove garlic, grated or finely chopped
  • 1 Tbsp chopped fresh dill or 1 tsp dried dill
  • 1 tsp salt
  • ½ tsp ground black pepper
  • 2-4 lbs. chicken wings

 

Tzatziki Sauce

  • ½ cup Greek yogurt
  • ¼-⅓ cup cucumber, chopped
  • 2 Tbsp onion, finely chopped
  • 1 Tbsp fresh dill, finely chopped (or 1 tsp dried dill)
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • 1 Tbsp lemon juice

 

Directions

 

  1. In a large Ziploc bag, combine yogurt, olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, dill, salt and pepper.
  2. Add chicken wings, squeezing bag until wings are well coated. Refrigerate for 2-3 hours, moving wings around in bag every hour.
  3. While wings are marinating, in a small bowl combine yogurt, cucumber, onions, lemon juice, dill, salt, and pepper for sauce. Mix thoroughly and refrigerate until ready to serve.
  4. Remove wings from marinade. Wings can either be baked on a foil-lined baking sheet in a preheated 450ºF oven for 45-50 minutes, turning once, or grilled at medium heat until browned and no longer pink in the center.
  5. Serve with Tzatziki sauce.
