Greek Chicken With Tomatoes and Feta

Submitted by BxChick

"This recipe was modifed from a Food Network recipe that called for shrimp instead of chicken. I also threw in some frozen spinach for added nutritional value. Really comforting and filling, but healthy. I served with couscous, but would also work well with orzo, rice, or spaghetti."

• Ingredients: 10

ingredients

• 1 lb boneless skinless chicken breast, cut into large cubes
• 1 medium onion, diced
• 2 garlic cloves, minced
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 (28 ounce) can diced tomatoes with juice

directions

1. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
2. Heat the oil in an oven proof skillet or dutch oven over a medium-high heat.
3. Brown chicken in batches until mostly cooked through (will finish in oven), and set aside in a bowl or on a plate.
4. Add the onion and cook until softened, about 3 minutes, then add the garlic and cook for 1 minute.
5. Add the tomatoes and spinach and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium-low and let simmer for about 5 minutes, until the tomato juices thicken.
