Ingredients
- 1 1/4 cups nonfat plain Greek yogurt
- 1 clove garlic, finely grated
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
- 1 1/2 teaspoons dried oregano
- 8 bone-in chicken thighs, skin removed
- Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
- 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for brushing
- 1 large eggplant, quartered lengthwise
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 8 baguette slices
- 3 medium tomatoes, quartered
Instructions
- Preheat a grill to medium high. Mix the yogurt, garlic, parsley and oregano in a bowl. In a separate bowl, toss the chicken with 1/4 cup of the yogurt mixture, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and pepper to taste. Stir the olive oil into the remaining yogurt mixture and set aside.
- Brush the cut sides of the eggplant with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and the smoked paprika. Brush the bread with olive oil.
- Brush the grill grates with olive oil. Grill the chicken, turning once, until cooked through and a thermometer inserted into the thickest part registers 160 degrees F, 15 to 20 minutes. Meanwhile, grill the eggplant, skin-side down, until softened, about 15 minutes; turn and continue cooking until tender, about 5 more minutes. Grill the tomatoes and bread, turning once, until marked, 2 to 3 minutes.
- Serve the chicken, eggplant, tomatoes and bread with the yogurt sauce.

Reviews
I added Zucchini, squash, red pepper and eggplant, and red onion. I also didn’t want to cut tomato’s so I bought Campari tomato’s on the vine instead (they were the star of the dish!) For the veggies I changed up the spices for more of a Mediterranean flair. I did smoked paprika, chili powder, cumin, onion powder, garlic powder, lemon salt, and mustard powder. I doused everything in olive oil then tossed all the cut up veggies with the spices.
The chicken I did in a Souvlaki marinade with garlic.
The yogurt, I took some garlic minced it up, added fresh dill, and diced up some cucumber and made a sauce for on top or to dip in.
Made this for a group of ppl and everyone was absolutely silent because they could not stop stuffing their faces!!! It was an enormous success, no food left behind and will become a regular in this house! Love the base of this recipe to dream up the rest for myself!
