GREEK ISLAND CHICKEN

This recipe is an internet find, though I've forgotten where. Its quick to put together, and served over rice, coucous or orzo makes an entire meal. I'm not sure how authentically Greek it is, but we like the flavor combinations: the sweetness of the cinnamon and the honey balanced by the acidity of the wine and lemon. Make sure to use a drinkable wine for best results.

Steps:

  • Add oil to a large skillet over medium heat, and saute chicken breasts on all sides, about 5 minutes.
  • Remove from skillet, and set aside.
  • Add onion and red pepper to skillet and saute for one minute.
  • Add garlic, and continue cooking for 3 minutes, or until onion begins to go limp.
  • Cut the sun-dried tomatoes in half, and add them to the skillet, along with all remaining ingredients except lemons and parsley.
  • Mix well.
  • Add the chicken breasts and any collected juices back to the pan, turning them over once to get them covered with the skillet juices.
  • Lay the lemon slices on top of the other vegetables around the skillet.
  • Cover, and simmer for 15 minutes, occasionally basting breasts with pan juices.
  • Remove cover and cook 5 additional minutes, until chicken is tender and the sauce is slightly reduced.
  • If you want a less liquid sauce, remove the chicken to serving dish at this point, increase heat and boil a minute or two, or until juices are boiled down to your desire.
  • Spoon sauce and vegetables over chicken, garnish with parsley and serve.

2 boneless skinless chicken breasts
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 onion, chopped
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 red bell pepper, cut in strips
3/4 ounce sun-dried tomato (not oil-packed)
1 1/2 cups dry white wine
1/3 cup pitted black olives, sliced
1 lemon, sliced and pips removed
1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon
1 teaspoon honey
salt and pepper
chopped parsley, to garnish

GREEK ISLAND CHICKEN SHISH KEBABS

This is a nice change from the ordinary grilled chicken. This is excellent served with pita bread, a garlicky tzatziki, and a Greek salad. Lamb can be substituted for the chicken, and many variations on vegetables can be used.

Steps:

  • Whisk the olive oil, lemon juice, vinegar, garlic, cumin, oregano, thyme, salt, and black pepper together in a large glass or ceramic bowl. Add the chicken and toss to evenly coat. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap; marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours.
  • Soak wooden skewers in water for about 30 minutes before use.
  • Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat; lightly oil the grate.
  • Remove the chicken from the marinade and shake off excess liquid. Discard the remaining marinade. Alternately thread pieces of the marinated chicken with pieces of bell pepper, onion, cherry tomatoes, and mushrooms onto the skewers.
  • Cook the skewers on the preheated grill, turning frequently until nicely browned on all sides, and the chicken is no longer pink in the center, about 10 minutes.

Steps:

  • Pull the meat from the chicken and shred it roughly. Trim the base from each lettuce, wash and dry the leaves, then roughly shred them. Cut the tomatoes into wedges. Finely slice the spring onions (using both white and green parts). Cut the avocados in half lengthways, remove the stones and peel. Cut crosswise into slices, and squeeze with lemon juice. Crumble the feta cheese with your fingers and toss it with the dried oregano and mint. Pick the leaves off the parsley and set aside.
  • Whisk the 3 tbsp of lemon juice with the olive oil, sea salt and pepper. In a large bowl, toss the chicken, lettuce, tomatoes and spring onion, then fold through three quarters of the dressing with the avocados (carefully, so the avocados don't break up). Season with salt and pepper, then scatter over the feta, olives and parsley, and drizzle with the rest of the dressing. Squeeze extra lemon juice on top, and serve with pitta bread if you wish.

GREEK ISLAND CHICKEN WITH MARINATED ARTICHOKES

A tasty chicken dish - with a flavoursome blend of herbs, spices, vegetables and honey - which is nonetheless still reasonably low both in calories and in fat. Adapted from Paige Morehouse's recipe which appears in Prevention Healthy Cooking's 'Eat Up, Slim Down: Tried-and-true recipes and tips from real weight-loss winners' by Jane Kirby and David Joachim. Because the recipe contains several vegetables, it really is a stand-alone dish. When I've made it, I've added a bit more garlic (personal preference). The original recipe had 2 cloves of garlic; and I've included more like 8 ounces of mushrooms (again, personal preference). The original recipe had 3 ounces of mushrooms. I've always used kalamata olives when making this dish.
