I decided to sub the mayo for greek yogurt for a low-cal, healthier spin. This recipe was so extremely easy, convenient, and absolutely delicious. The greek yogurt locks in the moisture, and the spices just kick it up to a whole different level.
We were both huge fans... in fact I've made it two more times since then because it was so yummy! Paired with crunchy baked okra and roasted garlic brussel sprouts... oh yum! Super low in calories and high in protein, both your waistline and your hunky meat-and-potatoes kind of man will thank you!

Yes, I told you, the world's easiest meal, and clean-up is even easier!
For all of us working women, this would be extremely easy to prep the night before. Then all you have to do at the end of a long day is preheat the oven and throw the chicken in! Voila - a healthy meal in less than an hour!
I promise you will love it. In fact, this leftover hater looked forward to lunch the next day - shocking!
Bon Appetit!
