¾ cup plain Greek yogurt ($0.78)

Instructions
Gather all of your ingredients.
Stir
In a small bowl, combine the ingredients for the marinade (½ cup plain Greek yogurt, lemon juice, garlic, cinnamon, oregano, salt, nutmeg, and ground cloves). Stir to combine.
Slice chicken breasts into 1-inch-thick strips before marinating to maximize the flavor.
Marinate
Add chicken to a gallon ziptop bag or to a medium mixing bowl. Pour in the marinade and toss to cover the chicken. Make sure it’s coated well. Then, cover and refrigerate for 4-24 hours.
Mix
If you're making the yogurt sauce (optional), you can prepare it while the chicken marinates. Combine the ¾ cup plain Greek yogurt with the garlic, dill, and salt. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use.
Grill
Preheat your grill. After marinating the chicken, grill until cooked through (I use an indoor tabletop grill; the total amount of time it'll take to cook will vary from grill to grill). Flip after 7 minutes.***
Check temperature
Check the internal temperature of the chicken before removing it from the grill; it must read at least 160℉. It'll reach a safe temperature of 165℉ after it’s removed from the grill and rested for a few minutes, covered with foil on a clean plate. Once rested, the is ready to use!
