Ingredients

16 oz Chicken Breast boneless skinless
¼ cup Greek yogurt
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
2 teaspoons dried oregano
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

Prepare the chicken: Trim any excess fat from the chicken breast and pat dry with a paper towel on both sides. Use a sharp knife to cut the chicken into 1.5-inch pieces.
Assemble the Greek marinade: Add the Greek yogurt, lemon juice, red wine vinegar, and dried seasonings into a medium-sized mixing bowl. Whisk to fully combine.
Marinate the chicken: Add the diced chicken breast into the marinade and toss to coat. Cover the bowl and let marinate for at least 30 minutes or up to 24 hours.
Air fry Greek chicken: Preheat the air fryer to 375°F (190°C) for 3-5 minutes. Shake off any excess marinade, and add to the air fryer. Cook for 15-20 minutes, flipping halfway or until the chicken is cooked through and tender. Serve hot over rice, in a pita, or in a Greek salad with feta cheese. Enjoy!

Notes

Storage Instructions: Cool the Greek chicken bites to room temperature, then put them in an airtight container. They will stay good in the fridge for 3 to 4 days. Lay them flat or use parchment paper between layers to keep them from sticking.

Freezing Instructions: After cooking, cool the chicken bites and spread them on a tray to freeze until solid, so they don’t stick together. Then, put them in a freezer bag or container, remove the air, and freeze. They can be kept for up to 3 months. Thaw them in the fridge overnight or reheat straight from frozen in the air fryer until hot.
