Greek Chicken Delight



I got the recipe from my sis but of course I altered it a bit!

Ingredients
6 chicken thighs- ideally boneless and skinless
salt and pepper
olive oil



1/2 cup chicken broth
1/4 cup olives -calabria is the best
1/2 to 1 tsp oregano
minced garlic
mushrooms, tomatoes, peppers and onion flakes (optional)
2 lemons






Heat olive oil in pan.  Sprinkle chicken with salt and pepper and add to heated oil.  If chicken has skin, put skin down.  Once chicken releases turn to brown both sides.











Make a sauce using chicken broth, oregano, olives, juice of one lemon and minced garlic.  We used 6 cloves.  Add vegetables of your choice.










We added one tomato chopped, a small piece of green pepper, one cooking onion, shiitake mushrooms, and onion flakes.   

The choice is yours.


Pour the sauce over the chicken.

And add the lemon slices on top. 

 Cover and cook.  You can cook this either in the oven for about 1 hour at 350 degrees or a crop pot 
all day on low 5-6 hours.  

Yummy!




 We served with spanish rice and greek salad and the flavour went really well together.  
We will post the rice and salad recipes soon!
