A fresh take on comfort food, Greek chicken and rice is my go-to on busy weeknights and when unexpected company stops by. Boost the health benefits and toss in chopped spinach. —Savannah Lay, Baker City, Oregon

Greek Chicken & Rice

chicken

garlic powder

pepper

olive oil

(12 ounces) marinated quartered artichoke hearts, drained and chopped

oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes, chopped

Greek olives, sliced

(8.8 ounces) ready-to-serve brown rice

parsley

I changed the recipe up a bit after reading the reviews and marinated the chicken in olive oil, lemon and greek spice. I added spinach and feta cheese, a squeeze of fresh lemon, used fresh garlic and jarred sliced kalamata olives instead of canned ones. The flavor was fantastic. This will become a regular in our house!

After served, I added a spoonful of greek yogurt and pistachios. Served with basmati rice

Delicious and different. The flavors just popped! Looks beautiful in the pan/platter. I am going to try it with tofu  when my vegetarian friends come over. But, for carnivores, this is a company meal just as it is.

Sans the chicken "all my very loved ingredients " (I like chicken, but if I had a choice, beef!). This is an excellent dish and will make again. I used wild turkey and some of the meat was chewy, but that's wild game. This recipe is a keeper.

I've never been a real fan of artichokes, but this recipe helped me enjoy them.  I like this recipe because it makes a hearty meal in a very short time (even if you cooked your own rice, it would still be done by the time the meal is ready.)  A little added lemon juice makes the flavor pop!

I added oregano for more flavor. Very good recipe!

The flavors did not come together for me. It was more like a Greek stir fry, but with no cohesive sauce. I added garlic and lemon juice which helped, and the a little corn starch to thicken the liquid in the pan.

The flavors did not come together until the next day.  This was very bland and the olives were the mail flavor enhancers.  I added extra olives...doubled the amount.  I will also cook the rice--I had no instant so used long cooking rice--with chicken broth next time.  I will also add some lemon zest during cooking and a couple squirts of lemon juice at serving time to brighten-up dish.  Otherwise, a very nice and easy change for dinner.  Expensive, but if you do it right, you can use pretty much everything several times.

I love this dish!  I now make it about once a month.  When I'm unable to find roasted sweet peppers, I add the fresh equivalent and it seems to work well.

The flavors in this recipe come together beautifully! I didn't have chicken, so I made "veggie only" version (added the garlic powder

Easy to make, outstanding flavors, and just plain delicious. This is going on my favorites list.

In spite of all the ingredients this was a trifle bland.  I'd add a few garlic cloves, salt and pepper to the skillet instead of sprinkling on the chicken.  As in another review a sprinkle of lemon juice might help too.  Otherwise it was quick, easy and okay.

Very tasty! The combination of strong flavors made additional seasoning unnecessary.

Added shrimp and a few more olives....it was delicious!  Definitely what we call a "keeper" recipe and will make it again!

We absolutely loved this recipe! It was so easy and delicious. I wouldn't change a thing.

Tasty and easy! I made regular brown rice. Start it early since the rest of the meal comes together quickly.

My husband really liked this recipe.  Nice flavor and very easy to prepare. I added some asparagus and mushrooms that I wanted to use up. It made enough for two meals.

Very easy to make with plenty of flavor.  I will add a few more olives next time.  I thought they got lost in the dish.

This was delicious.  I will double the rice next time but other than that it was perfect.
