Ingredients
  

Chicken and Broccoli
  • 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 2 cups broccoli florets
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
Creamy Garlic Sauce
  • 1/2 cup Greek yogurt
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon dried parsley

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Pat the chicken breasts dry, then coat with olive oil and season both sides with salt and black pepper.
  2. Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat and cook the chicken for 6–7 minutes per side until fully cooked and the internal temperature reaches 165°F / 74°C.
  3. Steam the broccoli florets for 4–5 minutes until bright green and tender-crisp.
  4. Combine Greek yogurt, minced garlic, lemon juice, and dried parsley in a small bowl, whisking until the sauce is smooth.
  5. Rest the grilled chicken briefly, then slice it into pieces.
  6. Arrange broccoli in serving bowls, add the sliced grilled chicken, and finish with a drizzle of creamy garlic sauce.

Notes

For the best texture, store the creamy garlic sauce separately from the other components when keeping leftovers.
