WW Low Carb Lemon Chicken Thighs I like to keep things simple in the kitchen. When I saw this recipe for Chicken with Greek herb sauce in Nigella Kitchen: Recipes from the Heart of the Home (affiliate link) it caught my eye. I liked that the chicken thighs are cooked in the oven rather than on the stove. I much prefer cooking most anything in the oven rather than on the stove. It's easier and a lot less messy. Recipe NotesThe recipe calls for bone-in chicken thighs, but I used what I had - the boneless, skinless variety - with good results. And she suggests putting some potatoes in to bake about 30 to 45 minutes ahead of the chicken to keep things easy, which I did. Simple Baked Lemon Chicken Thighs As I was making the Greek herb sauce, Greek yogurt doctored with scallions, garlic, cucumber and fresh herbs, I decided this was more of a "dip" than a sauce. So we enjoyed some if it as part of a healthy afternoon snack with red pepper strips and cucumber slices. During dinner everyone seemed to enjoy the "sauce" more as a topping for their baked potatoes than for the chicken, so I renamed it "Skinny Greek Herb Dip" with a page of it's own.
