This is a wonderful lower fat marinade that really does a great job with tenderizing, I have listed the chili powder and cumin as optional you may add in or omit, I would suggest to add in as they really bring out so much more flavor to the chicken --- the amounts listed is enough for 6 large or 8 small boneless chicken breasts, the chicken must marinate for at least 8 hours

1 1/2 cups (approx) (change servings and units)

Ingredients

1 cup plain fat-free yogurt
2 tablespoons fresh minced garlic (or to taste)
1/4 cup lemon juice
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 teaspoons sugar
1 tablespoon fresh minced ginger
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon cumin (optional)
2 teaspoons mild chili powder (optional)

Directions

1
In a bowl mix together all ingredients until blended.
2
Place the chicken into a large resealable plastic bag.
3
Pour the marinade over the chicken, seal bag and turn to coat.
4
Place in refrigerator for 8 to 24 hours.

This was fabulous! Just a touch of zing from the ginger (had to use dried, all I had) but nothing overpowering. After a disastrous camping weekend long ago eating nothing but beans and hot dogs, thanks to my dear husband, I now make all the camping food. Cut chicken into strips and stuck in a quart ziploc with this the night before we left, and this cooked on the camp stove to moist perfection. Thanks so much for another great recipe! I will make this again, even when sleeping on the ground is not going to be an issue!

Great!! I marinated the chicken overnight and grilled it the next day. Wonderful garlic flavor and very tender. Will for sure make again.
