About Yogurt chicken

Yogurt Chicken is a flavorful dish often associated with Indian cuisine and other Middle Eastern traditions. This dish features chicken marinated in a mixture of yogurt, spices, and herbs that tenderizes the meat while infusing it with rich, aromatic flavors. Common ingredients include garlic, ginger, turmeric, cumin, coriander, and chili powder, offering a balance of savory and spicy notes. Yogurt is the key component, providing probiotics for gut health, while tenderizing the chicken and keeping it moist during cooking. Lean chicken is a healthy source of protein, and the dish is typically low in added fats, especially when grilled or baked instead of fried. However, sodium content can be high if pre-made spice blends are used, so opting for fresh, low-salt ingredients is recommended. Paired with whole grains or vegetables, it makes for a nutritious, well-rounded meal.
