MEDITERRANEAN CHICKEN THIGHS WITH POTATOES, PEPPERS AND FETA



Mediterranean Chicken Thighs with Potatoes, Peppers and Feta image

Provided by Valerie Bertinelli

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h15m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

6 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 yellow onion, halved and sliced
1 red bell pepper, sliced into strips
1 yellow bell pepper, sliced into strips
3/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1/2 pound baby gold potatoes, quartered
3 garlic cloves, peeled and thinly sliced
1 cup cherry tomatoes
1/2 cup red wine vinegar
1 tablespoon chopped fresh oregano leaves
1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves
One 12-ounce can quartered artichoke hearts, drained
1/3 cup crumbled feta cheese
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degree F. Heat a large, high-sided, oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Sprinkle the skin side of the chicken thighs with salt and pepper. Add the olive oil to the hot pan and place the chicken in the pan, skin-side down. Sprinkle the other side of the chicken with salt and pepper. Let the chicken cook until it easily releases from the pan and is golden brown, about 8 minutes. Flip the chicken and allow to cook for an additional 2 minutes. Remove the chicken to a plate and set aside.
  • Turn the heat down to medium and add the onion, peppers and red pepper flakes and sprinkle with salt. Let the vegetables cook, stirring regularly, until slightly wilted, about 3 minutes. The natural liquid from the vegetables will help deglaze the pan. Add in the potatoes and garlic and sprinkle with salt and cook, stirring occasionally, for an additional 3 minutes. Add in the tomatoes, vinegar, oregano, thyme and artichoke hearts. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and stir to combine. Turn off the heat and nestle the chicken thighs on top of the vegetables.
  • Transfer the pan to the oven and bake, uncovered, until the internal temperature of the chicken is 165 degrees F and the potatoes are fork tender, about 35 minutes. Remove the pan from the oven and sprinkle with feta cheese and parsley.

Yield 7

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 boneless chicken breast halves, cooked
2 hard-cooked eggs
3 potatoes, cooked
1 ¼ cups pickled cucumbers
¼ teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons olive oil
⅔ cup mayonnaise

Steps:

  • Chop the chicken, eggs, potatoes and pickled cucumbers into very small pieces. Mix all together. Add the salt and mayonnaise, then the olive oil. Toss to coat. Refrigerate for 2 to 3 hours before serving.

Nutrition Facts : Calories 339.8 calories, Carbohydrate 17.9 g, Cholesterol 92.1 mg, Fat 24.5 g, Fiber 2.3 g, Protein 12.6 g, SaturatedFat 4.2 g, Sodium 599.7 mg, Sugar 1.4 g

Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use ripe, in-season tomatoes. Look for tomatoes that are deep red in color and have a firm texture.
  • If you don't have any fresh basil, you can use 1/4 teaspoon of dried basil instead.
  • If you don't have any red wine vinegar, you can use white wine vinegar or lemon juice instead.
  • Be sure to season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper before cooking them. This will help to bring out their flavor.
  • Cook the chicken breasts over medium heat so that they cook evenly. If you cook them over too high heat, they will brown too quickly and become dry.
  • Let the chicken breasts cool slightly before slicing them. This will help to prevent them from falling apart.
  • Serve the chicken and potato salad immediately, or chill it for later.

Conclusion:

This Mediterranean chicken and potato salad is a delicious and healthy meal that is perfect for a summer picnic or potluck.
