Ingredients:
3 lbs (4) skinless boneless chicken breasts
1 cup (8 oz) plain yogurt
4 tablespoons butter, melted
2 teaspoons dried thyme
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1-1 1/4 cup ground dry roasted peanuts
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350F.
Pat dry chicken and place in a plastic ziplock bag. Cover with yogurt and refrigerate overnight. Next day transfer to a cutting board with a sheet of wax paper. In a small bowl combine the butter, thyme and black pepper. Brush this on all sides of the chicken.
In a shallow dish combine the ground peanuts and cayenne pepper. Roll chicken in mixture until covered with peanuts on all side; place on a roasting pan. Bake for 40-45 minutes or until chicken’s internal temperature reaches 160-165F. Serve immediately with your favorite sides. Easy Peasy!
