GRILLED CHICKEN WITH YOGURT MARINADE
Boneless skinless chicken thighs are a reliable choice when it comes to grilling chicken. They're thinner than breasts, so they cook more evenly, and the higher fat content makes them difficult to overcook. In this recipe inspired by Turkish chicken kebabs, a yogurt and herb marinade makes them supremely tender and helps them brown beautifully on the grill. While some citrus-heavy marinades begin to break down chicken after just a few hours, this marinade uses only the zest, saving the juice for a quick squeeze before serving. The result is incredibly tender chicken you can prep up to a day in advance. Oregano and thyme work well together here, but feel free to play around with herbs and use what you have on hand, or substitute dried herbs in a pinch.

Steps:
- In a large bowl, combine the yogurt, garlic, oregano, thyme, olive oil, salt and pepper. Zest the lemon over the bowl, reserving the rest of the lemon for serving. Whisk until smooth.
- Add the chicken thighs, toss to coat, then cover and refrigerate for at least 3 hours, or up to 24. Remove chicken from the refrigerator 30 minutes before cooking.
- If using a grill, clean and oil the grates. Set the grill to medium-high or heat a grill pan slicked with olive oil on the stovetop over medium-high. Grill the chicken for 6 to 8 minutes on each side (depending on the thickness of the thighs), covering the grill halfway through if necessary to retain heat, until cooked through.
- Transfer the chicken thighs to a platter and squeeze half the lemon over them. Sprinkle with salt, pepper and parsley, and serve with lemon wedges on the side if desired.

BROILED CHICKEN THIGHS IN YOGURT
In this Middle Eastern-style recipe, plain yogurt plays a double role: First it tenderizes the chicken, then it helps thicken and enrich the sauce. During the summer months, stoke up your barbecue and grill the chicken outdoors. The chicken thighs and coriander sauce can be served hot or at room temperature. The sauce can be made up to 24 hours ahead of time, kept covered in the fridge, but reheat it gently so it doesn't boil and separate. The chicken can marinate up to 24 hours, but broil it at the last minute. Time does not include marination.

Steps:
- PREPARE THE CHICKEN: Put the chicken thighs in a large bowl and pour the plain yogurt over the top. Season the yogurt with salt and pepper.
- Turn the chicken thighs with your hands until the chicken is well coated with yogurt, then cover the bowl tightly and set aside to marinate in the refrigerator 3-4 hours.
- Heat the broiler. Brush the rack in the broiler pan with oil. Lift the pieces of chicken out of the bowl and with metal spatula, scrape off the yogurt, discarding it.
- Dry the chicken pieces with paper towels and arrange them on the broiler rack.
- Broil the thighs 3-4 inches from the heat until the tops are very brown, about 8-10 minutes. Turn the pieces over.
- Continue broiling until the pieces are very brown and no pink juice runs out when they are pierced with a 2-pronged fork, 7-10 minutes longer. While the chicken is cooking, make the sauce.
- CORIANDER SAUCE: Chop the onion and finely chop the garlic. Heat the oil in a saucepan and sauté the onion until soft and starting to brown. Add the ground coriander and garlic and continue cooking over low heat for 2-3 minutes, stirring constantly. Puree the onion mixture with yogurt in a food processor. Add the fresh coriander (cilantro) and puree just until it is chopped.
- Return to the saucepan. Pour in the sour cream, then season with salt and pepper. Heat the sauce, stirring constantly. Taste for seasoning and keep warm. (When heating a sauce that contains sour cream or yogurt, do not let it boil or it will separate.).
- To serve, arrange 2 chicken thighs on each warmed plate and spoon the sauce around them. A nice tabouleh salad would go perfectly with this dish and I recommend Tabouleh Recipe #91403.
