Step-by-Step Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, combine olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, paprika, cumin, salt, and pepper. Coat your chicken thighs or breasts and let marinate for at least 30 minutes.
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat, add olive oil, and sear the marinated chicken for 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked to 165°F.
- In the same skillet, reduce heat and add a minced garlic clove, sauté for 1 minute. Whisk in yogurt and heavy cream, cooking gently for 3-4 minutes until thickened.
- Return the seared chicken to the skillet, coat with the creamy sauce, and let it simmer on low heat for 10-15 minutes.
- Transfer to a serving plate, garnish with parsley or dill, and serve with rice, flatbreads, or veggies.

Notes
Marinate chicken for deeper flavor, control heat to avoid burning, and taste sauce before serving to adjust seasoning.
