Mediterranean Skillet Supper Recipes

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large skillet. Add the cracked wheat and saute until toasty brown, about 2 to 3 minutes. Add the broth, cover and cook until the wheat is tender, about 20 minutes. If the wheat is tender but has not absorbed all of the water, remove the cover and cook for another few minutes, stirring occasionally until the excess moisture has evaporated. Add the sundried tomatoes and pesto; season to taste with salt and pepper. Add the chick peas, cover and cook for about 5 minutes or until the chick peas are heated through. Adjust seasoning. Serve with sour cream or plain yogurt as a topping.

Steps:

• Heat 2 tablespoons of the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and saute until cooked through, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a plate.
• Add the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil to the skillet. Add the tomatoes and cook until they start to blister, pop and release their juices, about 3 minutes. Lightly mash them with a wooden spoon or fork. Stir in the artichoke hearts with the marinade, olives and roasted red peppers. Season with salt and pepper and cook until heated through, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in the parsley and cooked chicken and cook for another minute.
• Meanwhile, cook the frozen rice according to the package instructions. Transfer the rice to a serving bowl and top with the chicken mixture.
