Ingredients

8 chicken thigh(s) , bone-in and skin-on
2 tbsp olive oil
79 ml LANCEWOOD Greek Delight® Double Cream Plain Yoghurt
2 tsp salt
1 tsp black pepper
4 tsp dried origanum
2 lemon(s) , large
6 garlic clove(s) , peeled

For toppings:

parsley , to garnish 
fresh origanum , to garnish 

Method

1. Make the marinade:  In a large bowl, whisk together the olive oil, Greek Delight Yoghurt, salt, pepper, oregano, and juice of the lemons until smooth and creamy. 

2. Marinate the chicken:  Place the chicken thighs in a roasting dish. Pour the yoghurt marinade over and rub it in to coat each piece well. Nestle the lemon halves and garlic cloves between the chicken pieces. Cover and marinate for at least 1 hour for best flavour. 

3. Roast to perfection:  Preheat the oven to 200°C. Roast the chicken for 45–50 minutes, or until golden and cooked through.

4. Crisp and serve:  For an extra-crisp finish, grill for 2–3 minutes after roasting. 
Garnish with fresh parsley and serve with a Greek salad and tzatziki. 

 

Tip: For an even creamier flavour, swap part of the yoghurt for LANCEWOOD® Double Cream Yoghurt - a double thick cream style option perfect for gourmet cooking in South Africa.
