Hi foodies!
I apologize for being MIA this week- to be honest, this week just kicked my butt all around. But hey, it’s Friday (and guess who is so excited to go to bed early? ME!)
I love making chicken, and I love coming up with new ways to cook it / flavor it, since chicken has the tendency to get a little boring. I decided to make a spicy, buffalo-inspired sauce, and let me tell you, this just might be one of my favorite recipes yet!
Ingredients:
-1/2 of a snack pack size (so about 1/4 cup, give or take) of Fage Nonfat Greek Yogurt
-paprika
-crushed red peppers
-mosquite seasoning from Costco
**the amounts of the seasonings will vary based off of how spicy you want the sauce
Directions:
-cook the chicken however you’d like (I recommend in the oven with minimal spices for about 35 minutes, but stovetop or crockpot would be fine too)
-place the greek yogurt in a bowl and mix it with the spices
-taste test the yogurt until you get it to your desired spiciness
-dip the chicken into the yogurt until it is fully coated
-enjoy! (I enjoyed mine with some grilled zucchini and corn on the cobb)
So simple and delicious!
The greek yogurt only adds about 40 calories total to your chicken (most of which comes from protein), making this an extremely high protein, low carb main dish! I’m telling you, this chicken was BOMB. The yogurt blends so well with the spices and adds a really great texture to the chicken. I seriously cannot wait to make it again!
