Grilled Lemon Tarragon Chicken

Marinade:
1 cup plain yogurt
1/2 cup fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoons olive or vegetable oil
2 tablespoons dried tarragon leaves
1 tablespoon fresh garlic, finely minced or crushed
1 teaspoon kosher or sea salt
Freshly ground pepper to taste
Lemon wedges for garnish

6 bone-in chicken breast halves

In a large zipper-style plastic bag combine all ingredients for the marinade, mixing well. Add the chicken breasts and seal; place bag in a dish as a precaution against leaks. Allow chicken to marinate for several hours in the refrigerator or overnight, turning bag over occasionally.
Drain marinade into a small, nonreactive saucepan. Cook over medium-high heat for several minutes or until reduced by half.
Meanwhile, grill (or broil) chicken over medium-high heat about 8 to 10 minutes on each side or until tested done when juices run clear.
Place the grilled chicken breasts on a serving platter and drizzle with a spoonful or two of the reduced marinade, garnish with lemon wedges, if desired. Pass remaining marinade to spoon atop individual servings.

Makes 6 servings.
