  3. Let the chicken rest for about 5 minutes after grilling.
  4. Sauté broccoli in a skillet with olive oil for 3–5 minutes until bright green and tender-crisp.
  5. In a bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, Greek yogurt, lemon juice, mustard, and season with salt and pepper.
  6. Slice the grilled chicken and serve with sautéed broccoli, drizzled with the creamy garlic sauce.
