This tasted great; I've never tried yogurt and mint together before with chicken, but definitely will again because the chicken turned out super soft and juicy. Served with more fresh mint and a pile of cous cous and we all loved it!

My chicken came out nice and moist. The flavor was mild and pleasant. The mint did not overpower the flavor at all. I used a lowfat greek style yogurt and added just a pinch of curry powder. I allowed this to marinate for 2 hours before cooking. We were very pleased. Thanx!
