Greek Recipes

Tonight I made Greek Chicken, Spinach & Rice and Greek Salad. Greek food is my absolute favorite. I have been blessed to have a mom who cooks Greek and she learned from my Yiayia (Grandma). Even though my dad is the one who is Greek you would think my mom was too by the way she cooks. Here are some great recipes that are simple and delicious! Enjoy!!

Greek Chicken
2 pounds of thin chicken Breast
1/2 cup olive oil
2 cans chicken broth

In a deep dish pour the olive oil, chicken broth, lemon juice all together. Add chicken breasts. Sprinkle both sides of chicken with seasoning. I don't measure just a good sprinkle of each. Bake at 350 for 50 minutes or until done.
