Mediterranean Grill Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat a grill to medium high. Mix the yogurt, garlic, parsley and oregano in a bowl. In a separate bowl, toss the chicken with 1/4 cup of the yogurt mixture, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and pepper to taste. Stir the olive oil into the remaining yogurt mixture and set aside.
• Brush the cut sides of the eggplant with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and the smoked paprika. Brush the bread with olive oil.
• Brush the grill grates with olive oil. Grill the chicken, turning once, until cooked through and a thermometer inserted into the thickest part registers 160 degrees F, 15 to 20 minutes. Meanwhile, grill the eggplant, skin-side down, until softened, about 15 minutes; turn and continue cooking until tender, about 5 more minutes. Grill the tomatoes and bread, turning once, until marked, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Serve the chicken, eggplant, tomatoes and bread with the yogurt sauce.
