Skillet Greek Chicken with Artichokes, Spinach, Tomatoes, Feta, and Kalamata Olives
One day I was feeling like some Greek style chicken, and found a bunch of recipes, but none exactly like I was looking for. I wanted to make it all in one skillet and serve it over rice. So I decided to just come up with something myself. I think it turned out really good! It was flavorful, but still a lighter dish, and best of all, all made in one pan in only about 30 min! I served mine over brown rice, but I think quinoa would would be just as good. The only thing I might do differently is to add some lemon and salt and pepper (I included it in the recipe). Enjoy!
