Preheat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the chicken and flatten it evenly. Cook chicken without moving for 5 minutes.

After 5 minutes, stir the chicken in the pot and cook for another 3 to 5 minutes, until cooked through and browned. Stir regularly.

Enjoy with your favorite Greek dishes.

important tips

Cut the chicken with kitchen shears, or use a knife and a plastic cutting board (which can be placed in the dishwasher to sterilize after use). To make it as quickly as possible, we recommend using chicken tenders. Since they are already very small, it will take almost no time to cut them into cubes. For even more flavor, marinate the chicken in Greek dressing for 20 to 60 minutes. To get a golden skin on the chicken, cook the chicken in a hot skillet for 5 minutes (once it’s all in a layer) before moving it. If you don’t have Greek dressing on hand, make your own (recipe below)

variations

Spicy: Add crushed red pepper flakes Fresh herbs: After cooking, sprinkle with chopped Italian parsley, mint, oregano and basil

FAQ

What is the easiest chicken to use?

To put this recipe together quickly, I recommend using chicken tenders. Since chicken breasts are already very small, it’s easiest to cut them into cubes. I also really like this recipe that uses boneless, skinless chicken thighs. This is because it is okay to overcook it a little (cutting it into small pieces like this makes it easier to cook it).

What if I don’t have Greek dressing?

If you don’t have Greek dressing on hand, you can make your own Greek marinade by combining:

2 tablespoons olive oil 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar Juice of 1/2 lemon 1/2 tablespoon Dijon dressing 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning 1 teaspoon garlic powder 1/2 teaspoon salt 1/2 teaspoon oregano

Could you make this for me to prepare for the meal?

yes! However, browning the skin requires the chicken to be in contact with the hot skillet, and overcrowding the skillet can make this difficult. For best results, we recommend only making 1 to 2 pounds of chicken at a time in a very large skillet.

preserving leftovers

Refrigerator: Store leftover Greek chicken in an airtight container for up to 3 days. Reheat: Reheat in the microwave or in a frying pan over low heat until warmed through. Freezer: Freeze in freezer-safe bags or containers for up to 2 months. Thaw completely before reheating.
