Kelly's Chobani Chicken Wings
10 chicken wings
1 cup or so of yogurt (I use Plain Chobani Greek Yogurt)
1 clove of garlic
a dash of crushed red pepper
a pinch of parsley
1/2 lemon
salt
1 cups bread crumbs (I use Panko Bread Crumbs, a bit overzealous-ly, I should add)
butter (I use I Can't Believe It's Not Butter Mediterranean Blend)
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Peel and mince garlic. Place yogurt in a small bowl and stir until creamy smooth. Add garlic and crushed red pepper. Chop up a small amount of parsley and add it to the mix, along with the juice from the lemon. Stir together.
Rinse chicken and pat dry. Sprinkle with salt. In a separate shallow dish or bowl combine the bread crumbs and salt.
In a baking dish, place one scant pat of butter or margarine for each piece of chicken. Dip each wing into the yogurt mixture, using a pair of tongs. Then roll them around in the bread crumbs.
Place coated chicken wings over the butter pats in the baking dish and top each wing with a full pat of butter. Cover with foil and bake for one hour. Remove foil and bake for another fifteen minutes. Let cool for five to ten minutes before serving.

I served it with peas mixed with brown rice (plus a bit of butter, salt, and pepper) and grape tomatoes (sauteed over olive oil and garlic with salt).

I wonder if this would be a good way to prep fish...
On another note - girlfriend, do you have a Twitter account?
I have done something similar with drumsticks, but I had to use regular yogurt because I couldn't find the Greek kind around here. Do you know the difference?
Thanks for the recipe!
Those sound wonderful! I have a recipe for you that is really good and uses greek yogurt-- I use boneless, skinless chicken breasts and I grill instead of broiling. I generally cut up the chicken, put it in a whole wheat tortilla with matchstick carrots I sautee in a little olive oil and salt & pepper:
