Best Sauteed Chicken With Tomatoes Olives And Feta Recipes

ONE-SKILLET MEDITERRANEAN CHICKEN RECIPE WITH TOMATOES AND GREEN OLIVES

Steps:

• Pat the chicken breasts dry. On each side of the chicken breasts make three slits through.
• Spread the garlic on both sides; insert some garlic into the slits you made. Season the chicken breasts on both sides with salt, pepper and 1/2 of the dried oregano.
• In a large cast iron skillet, heat 2 tbsp of olive oil on medium-high. Brown the chicken on both sides. Add the white wine and let reduce by 1/2 then add the lemon juice and chicken broth. Sprinkle the remaining oregano on top. Reduce the heat to medium. Cover with a lid or tightly with foil. Cook for 10-15 mins turning the chicken over once (chicken's internal temperature should reach 165 degrees F.)
• Uncover and top with the chopped onions, tomatoes and olives. Cover again and cook for only 3 minutes. Finally add the parsley and feta cheese. Serve with a light pasta, rice or couscous. Enjoy

GREEK CHICKEN WITH TOMATO, OLIVE, AND FETA TOPPING

Steps:

• Trim any visible fat or undesirable parts from each chicken breast, then score the top with small diagonal cuts that criss-cross, being careful not to cut too far into the chicken so you can still turn them when you cook.
• Mix together the olive oil, lemon juice, oregano, and minced garlic.
• Remove 1/4 cup of that mixture and set aside for the topping later.
• Put scored chicken pieces into a glass baking dish or a Ziploc bag and marinate in the refrigerator at least one hour or as long as all day.
• When you're ready to cook, take the chicken out of the fridge and let it come to room temperature while you cut up the olives and tomatoes.
• Gently mix together the cut tomatoes, olives, crumbled Feta and reserved marinade.
• Heat about 1 tsp. additional olive oil in a large heavy frying pan over medium-high heat. (I used a 12-inch cast-iron skillet (affiliate link) which is great for stovetop browning of meat.)
• Remove chicken from the marinade and arrange in frying pan so they aren't crowded, scored side down.
• Cook 3-4 minutes on the top side, or until nicely brown, then turn and cook another 3-4 minutes on the second side. Chicken should feel firm (but not hard) to the touch when it's done.
• Season chicken to taste with salt and fresh-ground black pepper. (Remember the Feta is salty, so I wouldn't use too much salt.)
• Arrange chicken on a platter or on individual serving plates and spoon over the tomato, olive, and Feta topping. Serve hot.
