Greek Chicken Dinner
If you ask any one of my family they will confirm that I think I'm European (my dad grew up in Denmark, so technically I am half) and am obsessed with all things European, including the Mediterranean diet. This meal is great for serving a hungry family, or for cooking on Monday and enjoying leftovers all week. The best part - you only have one dish to clean after!
Ingredients:
5 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
2 cups baby potatoes halved
3 cups green vegetables (green beans, asparagus, Brussel sprouts, or broccoli)
3 tbsp olive oil
Ground sea salt and cracked pepper
For the marinade:
1/4 olive oil
4 gloves garlic, minced
Juice of 1 lemon
1 tbsp red wine vinegar
1 tbsp dried oregano
Ground sea salt and cracked pepper
Humus or tzatziki
Directions:
In a small bowl combine the ingredients to make the marinade
In a Ziplock bag, marinade the chicken for 30-60 minutes
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F
Place potatoes on the bottom of a roasting pan or baking dish
Layer the green veggies over the potatoes
Drizzle olive oil over potatoes and veggies, and season with salt and pepper
Place the chicken on the veggies and pour the remaining marinade from the bag onto the chicken
Cook for 30-35 minutes, then broil for an additional 2-3 minutes until the chicken is golden brown
Serve with humus or tzatziki for dipping
