Think you don’t have time to make a healthy meal? Think again! Here is quick, less than 20 minutes!, super easy & nutritious dish you can enjoy for lunch or dinner: Mediterranean chicken
Recipe:
Ingredients: pasture raised chicken breasts or thighs , garlic , onion , pitted Greek olives (I used a mixture of Kalamata & green olives), roasted red peppers , lemon , herbs , olive oil, stone ground mustard, salt & cracked black pepper.
Start by marinating the chicken at least 1 hour before cooking time. Cut the chicken into 1-1.5” cubes. Marinade: olive oil, garlic, lemon juice, 1 tsp. mustard, salt, pepper & herbs (thyme, rosemary, oregano, tarragon, marjoram, etc. or a mixture will all work well). Let chicken marinate at room temperature.
Chop the onion & a little more garlic, slice the olives, cut the roasted peppers.
Heat up a sauté pan over medium heat, add a little olive oil. Sauté the onions, then add the garlic and the chicken + its marinade. Sauté until chicken is almost done, then add the olives, roasted peppers & more herbs. Stir well and cook for another couple of minutes until chicken is done and everything is warmed through. Taste and season again, if needed.
You can enjoy this dish as is or serve it over zucchini noodles, pasta, farro, wild rice, couscous, or with some fresh baked crusty bread. We had ours with some fresh sourdough & a mixed greens salad.
Enjoy!
