Ingredients

1 1/2 cups plain yogurt

1 cup basil

1 green onion, all

2 garlic, peeled

1 Lime, juice and zest

2 teaspoon kosher salt

1 teaspoon black pepper

1 chicken 4-5 lb

1 tablespoon olive oil for drizzling

Preparation

In a blender, purée yogurt, basil, chives, garlic, scallion, lime zest and juice, salt and pepper until smooth.

Put chicken halves in a bowl or large heavy-duty resealable plastic bag and cover with three-quarters of the Green Goddess marinade. (Save the rest to serve as a sauce.) Refrigerate for at least 6 hours or up to overnight.
