Рецепт Greek Chicken With Mediterranean Salsa
Here. This. Now.
As I was driving to Madison yesterday with a gut wrenching feeling about leaving my family all day on Sunday to go to do a demonstration of my product at a grocery store I heard a guy on the radio say this was his mantra.
Here. This. Now.
He repeats it. He says it to himself. And out loud.
A reminder to himself to be present.
To focus on the here, the now.To be in this moment.
This resonated deeply with me, as I juggle two businesses, motherhood, friendship, and marriage. I often toggle between everything I am doing never truly focused on the moment, feeling pushed and pulled and stretched then.
Feeling like I come up short in everything…
As I went to the store with this mantra in mind, I was there. I focused. I smiled. I shared my Busy Bree’s creations. People liked them. -Liked them enough that they bought them.
And I smiled.
I came home and snuggled on the couch with two little boys and watched Willy Wonka.
And I smiled.
Here. This. Now.
XO,
Bree
- Here’s What You Need Chicken:
- 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
- Penzey’s Greek Seasoning
- Here’s What You Need Salsa:
- 1.5 cups of cucumbers, diced
- 2.5TBS feta
- Handful of kalamata olives, diced
- 5-6 cherry tomatoes
- 1/4 cup pepperocini
- 1 TBS evoo
- 1 TBS red wine vinegar
- Sea salt + pepper
- Greek seasoning
- Lemon wedge
Serve with pitas, tzatziki (I love the one from the Noisy Kettle!)
Here’s What You Do:
Season both sides of the chicken with the Greek seasoning, pressing it into the chicken. Heat a pan over medium high and drizzle it with olive oil. Cook the chicken about 6 minutes per side or until cooked through. To make the dressing add the extra virgin olive oil, red wine vinegar, and squeeze the lemon over the top. Season with sea salt, pepper , and the Greek seasoning. Blend all the ingredients for the salsa gently with a spoon and stir in the dressing.
Warm the pitas and the top with sliced chicken and salsa and spoon the tzatziki over the top.
Make a fun “take out night” by serving it with Alexia french fries. (Which are baked and all natural. Yay!)
Kid Tip:
This was a hit with the whole family! (Maybe it was the french fries?!) I cut the chicken into pieces and served the chicken with the fries and then hummus and the veggies. I also cut the pitas into wedges for the kiddos.
