- 1
In a medium bowl, whisk together the yogurt, garlic, lemon juice, Italian seasoning, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper.

Add the chicken breasts to the bowl and toss to coat evenly. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or up to overnight for the best flavor and tenderness.

Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Remove the chicken from the marinade, letting any excess drip off, and place it in the hot skillet.

Cook for 4–5 minutes per side, or until the chicken is golden brown on the outside and fully cooked through (internal temperature should reach 165°F/74°C).

Transfer the chicken to a plate and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy it with a fresh salad, rice, or roasted veggies!
