Ingredients

Scale

**For the Chicken & Zucchini:**

2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

2 medium zucchinis, sliced lengthwise

1 tablespoon olive oil

Salt and pepper, to taste

1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning

**For the Creamy Herb Sauce:**

1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 tablespoon lemon juice

1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill or parsley

1 garlic clove, minced

Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions

1. Preheat grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.

2. Pound chicken breasts for even thickness and season both chicken and zucchini with olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning.

3. Grill chicken for 4–5 minutes per side, until internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).

4. Grill zucchini slices for 2–3 minutes per side until charred and tender.

5. Whisk together all ingredients for the creamy herb sauce in a bowl.

6. Plate grilled chicken and zucchini, and drizzle with herb sauce before serving.

Notes

• Try this over a bed of quinoa or brown rice for a full meal.

• Swap Greek yogurt with sour cream for a richer sauce.

• Great for meal prep—store sauce and grilled items separately.
