Step-by-Step Instructions
- Begin by gathering all your ingredients for the Mediterranean Chicken Stir Fry. Chop the chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces, slice the zucchini into half-moons, and dice the red bell peppers. Mince the garlic finely and slice the red onion into strips. Halve the cherry tomatoes and pitted Kalamata olives.
- Heat 2 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat for about 2 minutes. Add the chopped chicken pieces to the skillet, ensuring they don't overcrowd the pan. Sear for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is golden brown and fully cooked through.
- In the same skillet, add another tablespoon of olive oil if necessary, followed by the sliced red onions and minced garlic. Cook these for about 2 minutes until they become fragrant and the onions are slightly translucent.
- Toss in the diced red bell peppers and sliced zucchini to the pan. Sauté the vegetables for about 4-5 minutes, stirring frequently, until they become tender yet still retain a slight crunch.
- Once the vegetables are cooked, add the seared chicken back to the skillet. Mix in the halved cherry tomatoes, Kalamata olives, and chopped sun-dried tomatoes. Sprinkle in the dried oregano, basil, and thyme.
- Squeeze fresh lemon juice over the dish and add crumbled feta cheese. Gently toss everything together to combine the flavors. Serve hot, garnished with freshly chopped parsley if desired.
