Lemon Yogurt Chicken Thighs

A very good dish, simple and fast, at the same time a bit more special than the classic baked chicken. The meat is soft and tender with a tasty and aromatic crust, even Sofia noticed that it smells good, it is delicious and I should make them.

Be careful not to put so many slices of lemon in the meat like me, they gave a slightly bitter note - it was okay to eat but it could be better.

Ingredients

Chicken meat
1 kg
I used boneless and skinless chicken legs
Buttermilk/Youghurt/Kefir

3 pieces
Sweet paprika
0.5 tsp
Salt
1 tsp
Ground black pepper

Step 5

Pay attention to this step:

- you can not put slices of the lemon you drained above at all

- if you still want a light flavor, put no more than 2 slices.

I put it all on and the meat was a little bitter.
