Everything Bagel Chicken Breasts Ingredients
Here are the delicious healthy ingredients you'll need to make this chicken dish:
- Chicken Breasts - This recipe uses four boneless skinless chicken breasts.
- Everything Bagel Seasoning - This is the star of this recipe! You can find everything bagel seasoning at most grocery stores these days, or you can purchase it here.
- Greek Yogurt - Plain greek yogurt is used for the sauce. I prefer to use greek yogurt over regular yogurt because it's thicker which gives a better dressing consistency.
- Green Onion - You'll need ¼ cup of chopped green onions for the dressing.
- Lemon Juice - You can use juice from a freshly squeezed lemon or store-bought lemon juice. I like to buy organic lemon juice and store it in the fridge for my recipes as it tends to be more cost-effective than buying fresh lemons.
- Spices - You'll also need garlic powder, salt and ground pepper.
