One-pot Mediterranean chicken recipe with a delicious fresh tomato sauce. Serve with your favorite side dishes for a complete meal.
Are you looking for an easy and delicious chicken dinner? Learn how simple it is to make Mediterranean chicken. A combination of lean meat, fresh vegetables, briny olives, and tangy feta cheese make this a colorful entree. Pair it with a couscous or orzo salad, grilled vegetables, and crispy potatoes.
The meat briefly marinates in a simple citrus sauce before cooking. The pieces are then pan-seared to create a flavorful crust and gently simmered in a savory tomato sauce. It only takes 30 minutes to prepare and works great for meal prep.
Chicken selection
Use boneless skinless chicken breast for a lean protein option that cooks quickly. Select pieces that are about 8 ounces in size. Any larger, and I recommend cutting them into cutlets. This prevents the chicken from drying out and will require shorter cooking times.
If you prefer dark meat, use bone-in or boneless chicken thighs, although they require more time to simmer until the internal temperature reaches 170ºF (77ºC).
