Hello… Everybody!
Today, I thought I would share a quick and easy, one pan chicken dish with all the flavors of Greece.
Savory feta, fresh herbs, kalamata olives, lemon…all so good.
I start the recipe by whipping up a little dressing/marinade to flavor up the chicken.
Don’t like chicken? You could swap in shrimp or firm tofu in this recipe but the cooking time would need to be adjusted down with the shrimp as it cooks up in about 10 minutes!
I absolutely love having fresh herbs on hand as they make any dish more flavorful. The bright green color they add makes the dish more beautiful too. I used both fresh oregano and dill in this recipe.
What are your favorite fresh herbs to use? I always have parsley and cilantro on hand. But, I do think dill is the prettiest. 🙂
I used sweet paprika that I had purchased in Hungary last year. It still provides a nice flavor and also a vibrant color to the chicken!
One pan means less mess. Always. a. good. thing.

Hi Kate, this recipe looks delicious and I’d like to try it. However, along with everything else, I can’t consume gut irritants. I don’t think the lemon will be an issue but vinegar is a definite no-no for me. Any other suggestions on what to use for a marinade? Thanks!

Vinegar is not a gut irritant for most people from my experience but if it bother you–I would definitely not use it! You can pull out the vinegar and add a another tablespoon of lemon juice OR try it without the vinegar with no substitution as another option.

I tried this for dinner tonight and it was delicious! I also made the 3-Berry Crisp from The Low FODMAP Diet for dessert.

We tried it tonight at it is FABULOUS. The only difference is that Trader Joe’s chicken breasts are twice the size of those indicated in the recipe. So I just cooked it longer. (There was enough marinade.) BTW, I used dried herbs.
