GREEK YOGURT CHICKEN STROGANOFF WITH MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Melt butter in a skillet over medium-high heat. Saute mushrooms and onions in hot butter until soft and caramelized, about 5 minutes.
• Pour 1/2 cup chicken stock into the skillet and bring to a boil while scraping the browned bits of food off of the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon.
• Gradually stir flour into mushroom mixture; cook and stir until light golden brown, about 30 seconds. Add remaining chicken stock to mushroom mixture; simmer, stirring occasionally, until sauce thickens, about 5 minutes.
• Stir yogurt into sauce; add cream cheese and stir until cheese melts and sauce is thickened, about 2 minutes. Stir chicken into sauce and cook until heated through, about 5 minutes more.

20-MINUTE SKILLET MUSHROOM CHICKEN

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200 degrees F. You will use it to keep the chicken warm.
• Cut chicken breasts in halves the horizontal way to make thinner chicken cutlets. Pat dry and season with salt and pepper. Combine oregano, paprika, and coriander in a small bowl. Season the chicken with the spice mixture on both sides.
• In a large skillet heat 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil until shimmering but not smoking. Add the chicken cutlets and cook for 3 to 4 minutes on one side, then turn over and cook for another 3 minutes or so. To check for doneness, cut into a piece with a thin-bladed knife and take a peek. Transfer the chicken to an ovenproof platter and put it in the oven.
• In the same skillet, now add a tiny bit more extra virgin olive oil. Add ghee and melt. Sautee the mushrooms for 5 minutes. Add broth, green onions, garlic, salt and pepper. Bring to a boil.
• Add the chicken back to the pan, spoon some of the sauce on top. Serve immediately.

GREEK-STYLE ROAST CHICKEN

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Put the potatoes in a roasting tin and drizzle with half the oil. Sit the chicken thighs on top, drizzle over the remaining oil and season. Roast in the oven for 30 mins.
• Add the cherry tomatoes, olives, oregano leaves and feta, then drizzle with the red wine vinegar. Return to the oven for another 25-30 mins until the chicken is cooked through and golden.

LOW CARB GREEK YOGHURT CHICKEN

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F. Lightly coat a 12 inch oven proof pan or 9×9 baking dish with nonstick oil spray and set aside.
• In a medium bowl, mix together the greek yogurt, mayonnaise, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, salt and pepper.
• Add chicken into the bowl with yogurt mixture and coat the mixture all over the chicken.
• Move chicken to a baking dish (or oven proof pan). Chicken should be thinly coated with the yogurt mixture. Don't put too much or any additional mixture leftover.
• Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through.
• Turn the oven to broil and place the pan under the broiler for 2-3 minutes until lightly browned on top.
• Optional: garnish with chopped parsley.

OVEN BAKED GREEK CHICKEN WITH VEGGIES

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 425 degrees F.
• Heat a large 12 inch cast iron skillet over medium high heat. Pat the chicken dry with paper towels. Sprinkle 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper over both sides of the chicken.
• Add 1 tablespoon oil to the hot pan and swirl. When it is shimmery, add the chicken to the pan with plenty of space in between each thigh. Sear the chicken for about 2 minutes, and when it is nice and brown, flip each thigh and sear for another minute or two until brown. You are not cooking the chicken, just searing the outside. Remove the chicken to a plate and set aside.
• Add more oil to the pan if necessary. Keep the heat at medium high. (If your veggies aren't prepped yet, turn the pan off.) When it is hot, add the red onion, green pepper, mushrooms, and garlic.
• Season with 1 teaspoon salt, 1 and 1/2 teaspoons oregano, and black pepper to taste. Saute for 3 minutes, then remove from heat.
• Stir in 2 cups sliced cherry tomatoes. Place the seared chicken on top of the vegetables, and add any juices to the pan. Sprinkle with another 1 and 1/2 teaspoons oregano.
• Transfer to the oven and cook at 425 for about 15 minutes, or until a meat thermometer inserted into the chicken registers 160 degrees.
• (This is a good time to make the Israeli couscous if you're making it.)
• Remove from the oven and sprinkle with 1/2 cup Kalamata olives and 1/2 cup feta cheese. Drizzle with 2 tablespoons olive oil and 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar.
• Serve over couscous, rice, potatoes, or cauliflower rice!

CHICKEN, MUSHROOMS AND RICE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter a casserole dish and set aside.
• Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onions and cook until beginning to soften, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the mushrooms and cook until golden, about 4 minutes.
• Sprinkle the chicken liberally with salt and pepper. Push the onions and mushrooms to the side of the skillet, add the chicken skin-side down and and cook until the skin is browned, about 4 minutes. Remove the chicken to a plate.
• Stir the rice into the onion and mushroom mixture and cook for 1 minute. Stir in the wine, bring to simmer and simmer for 1 minute. Stir in the soup and 1 1/2 cans of water and bring to a simmer.
• Pour the rice mixture into the buttered casserole dish. Place the chicken on top skin-side up and cover with a lid or foil. Bake, stirring in more water 1/2 cup at a time if the casserole starts to dry out, until the rice is tender, about 30 minutes.

WINE-BRAISED CHICKEN WITH MUSHROOMS AND LEEKS

Steps:

• Pat chicken dry with paper towels. Season all over with 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and the black pepper. Finely grate, pass through a press or mince 2 garlic cloves. Set aside half the grated garlic for finishing the dish. Rub the rest all over the chicken pieces. Set aside the chicken while preparing the other ingredients.
• In a Dutch oven over medium-high heat, combine 1 tablespoon oil and 1 tablespoon butter. When the butter melts, add chicken in batches and cook until browned on both sides, 4 to 6 minutes per side. If the pan dries out, add a little more oil as needed. Transfer browned chicken to a plate.
• Add remaining tablespoon each oil and butter to the pan. Once the butter melts, add mushrooms and cook undisturbed until well browned on one side, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir and cook for 1 minute longer.
• Thinly slice 2 garlic cloves. Reduce heat to medium, and stir in sliced garlic, leeks and a large pinch each of salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until leeks are tender and golden brown, 7 minutes. Add rosemary and wine to the pot and let simmer, scraping up the browned bits, until liquid reduces by half, about 1 minute.
• Nestle chicken, skin side up, into the pan and pour in any accumulated juices from the plate. Reduce heat to medium-low and cook, covered, until chicken is cooked through, 25 to 35 minutes.
• Transfer chicken to a serving platter and tent with foil to keep warm. Pluck the rosemary sprigs from the pot. If the sauce looks thin, turn the heat to medium-high and let simmer until it thickens slightly, 2 to 5 minutes. Stir in the remaining grated garlic, the crème fraîche, chives and lemon zest. Taste sauce and add more salt if needed. Spoon sauce over the chicken and top with parsley, more lemon zest and a dollop of crème fraîche, if you like, and serve.
