An easy savory chicken dish, inspired by a recent trip to a fantastic Greek restaurant. Goes well with a nice light salad. Leftovers can be cut up and served on a flour tortilla with Mediterranean greens as a wrap.
Ingredients
How to make it
- In medium pan, add enough olive oil to cover the surface of the pan.
- Add ~ 2 tsp. garlic
- On high heat, sear chicken. Once seared, reduce heat to medium. (Note: I've used chicken thighs and breasts. Personally, I prefer the thighs, but really any chicken would work.)
- Add basil and oregano to taste. (I use ~ 2 tsp. of each.)
- Cut ~ 1/2 cup of sun dried tomatoes into bite sized pieces.
- Add sun dried tomatoes, 1 small can of black olives, and ~ 1/4 cup vinaigrette dressing.
- Simmer over medium- to low-heat for 15 minutes, turning occasionally.
- While chicken simmers, cut 4 to 6 green onions into narrow 2 inch long strips. (The narrower the better.)
- Add green onions to ice water. (This shocks the green onions and makes them curl. Great visual effect. This takes several minutes and, in my experience at least, varies quite a bit. Plan on at least 5-10 minutes in ice water for best results.)
- Serving: place chicken on plate with tomato and olive mixture on top. Place handful of green onions on top, and then sprinkle with feta cheese.
