Grekisk Kyckling och Orzo Recept

👩‍🍳 Gör så här

1. 1
   In a small bowl, combine the paprika, dried thyme, garlic powder, 1 tsp dried oregano, ¾ tsp salt, and ¼ tsp black pepper.
2. 2
   Blot the chicken thighs dry with a paper towel, then season both sides liberally with the seasoning blend.
3. 3
   Heat the olive oil and butter in a large deep skillet over medium heat. Once the skillet is hot, add the chicken and cook on each side until golden brown and cooked through (about 5 minutes per side). Remove the chicken from the skillet and transfer to a clean plate. Cover with aluminum foil to keep warm.
4. 4
   In the same skillet, add the diced onion, diced bell pepper, and minced garlic. Sauté for 3-4 minutes until onions are translucent.
5. 5
   Now add in the orzo pasta, ½ tsp dried oregano, ¼ tsp salt, ¼ tsp black pepper, and the chicken broth. Stir to combine and scrape up any browned bits that may be stuck at the bottom of the pan.
6. 6
   Return the chicken to the pan and nestle it down into the orzo. Place a lid on the skillet, turn the heat up to medium-high, and let the broth come to a full boil. Once the broth is boiling, turn the heat down to medium-low and let the skillet simmer for about 12 minutes or until most of the broth is absorbed.
7. 7
   After about 12 minutes, add in the sliced grape tomatoes and let the skillet continue to simmer, without the lid, for 3-4 more minutes.
8. 8
   Remove the skillet from the heat and finish by stirring in fresh lemon juice, sliced kalamata olives, and topping with fresh parsley. Enjoy!
