Grilled Greek Chicken is a flavorful and healthy dish that is perfect for summertime grilling. The chicken is marinated in a mixture of olive oil, lemon juice, dried oregano, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper, which infuses it with a tangy, herbaceous flavor. Once marinated, the chicken is then grilled to perfection, resulting in a juicy and tender texture with a slightly charred exterior. To add even more flavor, the dish is served with a creamy and tangy Greek yogurt and feta cheese sauce on the side for dipping. This dish is great for a quick and easy weeknight dinner or for entertaining guests during a summer barbecue
