Mediterranean Citrus-Marinated Chicken with Herb Couscous and Tangy Yogurt Dressing

Ingredients

• 1 1/2 pounds chicken thighs boneless, skinless
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper freshly ground
• 1 cup orange juice freshly squeezed
• 1 tablespoon lemon zest finely grated
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1 cup couscous
• 1 1/4 cups chicken broth low-sodium
• 1/4 cup fresh parsley chopped
• 1/4 cup fresh mint chopped
• 1 cup Greek yogurt
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice freshly squeezed
• 1 clove garlic minced

Instructions

1. 1 In a large bowl, combine the chicken thighs with olive oil, salt, pepper, orange juice, lemon zest, and oregano. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours for more intense flavor.
2. 2 Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
3. 3 Place the marinated chicken in a baking dish and bake for 20-25 minutes until fully cooked and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
4. 4 In a medium saucepan, bring the chicken broth to a boil. Stir in the couscous, cover, and remove from heat. Let it sit for 5 minutes, then fluff with a fork and stir in parsley and mint.
5. 5 In a small bowl, combine Greek yogurt, lemon juice, and minced garlic. Mix well to create the tangy yogurt dressing.
6. 6 Serve the citrus-marinated chicken over a bed of herb couscous, and drizzle with tangy yogurt dressing. Garnish with additional parsley if desired.
