Steps:
- 1.) To prepare the chicken: Place a breast shiny side up with the tip facing you and the thinner side opposite your cutting hand. Place your hand on top of the breast. Hold the knife parallel to the table and carefully insert it into the thickest part of the breast, drawing it almost all the way through. Take care to keep the breast attached on 1 side. Spread the 2 halves as if opening a book and press lightly in the center to flatten. Repeat with the other 3 breast halves. 2.) Combine the chicken, oil lemon juice, oregano, and garlic in a bowl and refrigerate for 1 to 2 hours, turning occasionally. 3.) To prepare the yogurt cheese: Meanwhile, place the yogurt in a coffee strainer over a bowl and set in the refrigerator for 1 to 2 hours. combine the yogurt, cucumber, dill, garlic and 1/4 cup of the pistachios. 4.) Set up the grill for med-hot direct-heat grilling. Remove the chicken from the marinade. Sprinkle with the salt and pepper and set on a grill rack that has been coated with oil. Grill for 2 to 3 minutes per side or until the chicken is well marked and cooked through. Place each breast on a serving plate, top with the yogurt cheese, and sprinkle with the remaining 1/4 cup pistachios.
GRILLED GREEK CHICKEN
The secret to this simple grilled chicken is a very powerful marinade and 'roasting' it slowly over semi-indirect heat on the grill.

Steps:
- Whisk garlic, oregano, red pepper flakes, black pepper, lemon juice, olive oil, and vinegar together in a large bowl.
- Make 2 slashes on the skin side down to the bone in the thigh section and 1 in the leg section of each leg quarter. This will help infuse pieces with marinade and allow faster cooking on the grill. Season both sides of chicken generously with kosher salt. Transfer to bowl with marinade and thoroughly coat all sides. Cover and marinate in refrigerator 4 to 12 hours.
- Transfer chicken to paper-towel-lined sheet pan to drain slightly.
- Place leg quarters on grill skin side down over semi-direct heat (avoid intense direct heat so chicken cooks evenly and skin doesn't burn). Cook 6 or 7 minutes. Turn chicken and cook another 6 to 7 minutes. Continue cooking and turning until internal temperature reaches 165 degrees F (74 degrees C), 8 to 10 more minutes. Serve with lemon wedges.

GRILLED GREEK CHICKEN BREASTS WITH WHIPPED FETA
I'm showing you my favorite marinade and grilling technique for boneless, skinless chicken breasts, which can be a challenge, since they're often so dry and bland, but not with this method. Plus, I'm showing you how to make my new favorite thing to eat, which is whipped feta. Serve with grilled red onion and red bell pepper if you like, and garnish with Greek olives.

GREEK PASTA WITH GRILLED CHICKEN (FLAT BELLY DIET RECIPE)
I made this today from some ingredients I had on hand. It was yummy.If you want to try to follow a flat belly diet, I will be posting recipes that I try and like. I am trying to increase my intake of MUFA's(Monounsaturated fatty acids), These are really heart healthy fats that help to lower your bad cholesterol(LDL and VLDL, Low Density Lipoprotein and Very LDL) and raise your good Cholesterol, HDL(High Density Lipoprotein) The low density are smaller particles and get into the linings of your vessels, The high density lipoprotein helps keep your arteries clean. A 1600 calorie a day diet with a seving of MUFA's at each meal is the basic premise of the flat belly diet. Scientists already knew that MUFA's were associated with longevity, but new research demonstrates that they also can help you lose belly fat. Several new diets are cropping up centered all around MUFAs - you may hear them called 'Flat Belly' diets. Eating one serving at each meal can help control cravings and provide a mental and physical boost. Regardless of what your plan is, you can incorporate these delicious and nutritious foods into your diet. 1.Oils - flaxseed, canola, olive, sunflower, peanut, or soybean oil (and a few others) all do the trick. Pesto sauce also counts! One serving = 1 tablespoon. 2.Nuts & seeds - Nuts and natural nut butters (such as almond butter or peanut butter) are a great source of protein. Try adding nuts as salad toppers, or combine the butters with vegetables or crackers. One serving = 2 tablespoons. 3.Avocado - Slice an avocado for your salad, add a layer to a sandwich with sprouts and Swiss, or chop it and add it to salsa or another dip. One serving = ¼ cup. 4.Olives - Black or green olives can be used as toppings on entrees such as pizza, pasta, or chicken breast. One serving = 10 large olives. 5.Chocolate - Go with dark or semisweet chocolate. Top your Pinkberry with chocolate chips, add shavings to a favorite low-calorie dessert, or simple indulge in a dark chocolate square. One serving = ¼ cup. Bon Appetit!
