MEDITERRANEAN KALE WITH FETA

Adopted from the Clean Eating Magazine fall 2008, courtesy of ALSKANN in the Cookbook Swap (fall 2008) I love feta and kale. Never thought to put together. This looks scrumptious. The article aslo states that greens are interchangeable. I may try this with swiss chard as I have it in the garden.

MEDITERRANEAN CHICKEN WITH FETA CHEESE

This is a delicious and LIGHT! pasta dish as well as quite easy to make. If you love meat, then double the chicken... in the recipe I halved the original amount and like it much better that way. I added the kalamata olives to the original recipe and find it makes it a much better dish (but I loved it before the addition). I also use less feta than called for since I reserve a portion without for myself... I don't like feta. 30 minutes total prep and cooking... I work the whole time it's cooking. Enjoy!

Mediterranean Chicken With Feta Cheese image

Steps:

  • Bring water to boil for pasta, then follow package instructions and check for doneness (since recipes always take me a little longer than the stated time, I don't usually start cooking the pasta at the very beginning!).
  • Heat oil over medium heat in a large skillet.
  • Chop onions coarsely and add to pot.
  • Cut chicken into bite-size pieces and add to pot.
  • Raise heat to med-high.
  • Cook until chicken is not pink on the outside (about 3 minutes).
  • Add garlic, oregano, and basil and continue cooking chicken. Stir frequently.
  • When chicken is cooked through, stir in wine and cook 1 minute.
  • Add tomatoes with juice and continue cooking a few minutes until it becomes less juicy.
  • Stir in feta cheese and kalamata olives.
  • Garnish with parsley.
  • Serve over hot drained orzo -- sometimes I mix it all together.

Estimated Reading Time 5 mins
  • Fattoush Salad. Share on Pinterest. Pita chips in a salad? The crunchy bites means the fattoush always goes fast in a Middle Eastern meze. The salad features all of the fresh summer salad ingredients you’d find in a traditional garden, along with a lime vinaigrette that has allspice and cinnamon.
  • Bourtheto Fish Stew. One of the best things about Mediterranean cooking is its simplicity, and this fish stew nails it. From the Greek cooking blog Lemon & Olives, this recipe is low on ingredients and high on flavor.
  • Lemon Shrimp Pasta. No, pasta doesn’t have to be off-limits when you’re eating healthfully. Choose whole-grain pasta and keep your portion sizes under control, and you’ll have no problem fitting recipes like this one into your daily Mediterranean diet.
  • Cicoria e Fagioli. Share on Pinterest. Six ingredients and 20 minutes, and you can have a warm, satisfying, and healthy meal ready for your family. Get the recipe!
  • Halloumi, Mushroom, and Chorizo Tacos. Tacos aren’t exactly Mediterranean, but halloumi is. The salty goat cheese originates from Cyprus, and pairs well with anything savory or sweet.
  • Cabbage Stuffed with Marinated Cod. This is a Spanish recipe that’s heavy on flavor, but it’s pretty time-intensive. You’ll need to plan ahead because the cod needs to be soaked for 36 hours, but it’s definitely worth the wait.
  • Zucchini Blossoms with Bulgur. Have you ever eaten flowers? These zucchini blossoms will make you wonder why you didn’t start sooner. Stuffed with herbs and bulgur wheat, the pretty flowers are just as satisfying to eat as they are to look at.
  • Chickpea and Eggplant Warm Salad. Fresh, satisfying ingredients that won’t put you in a post-meal coma — another benefit of eating Mediterranean-style foods.
  • Tabbouleh. Share on Pinterest. Tabbouleh traces its roots to Syria, but you’ll find it in many other Mediterranean restaurants, too. With herbs and fresh lemon juice, it’s refreshing and filling, making it popular as a side dish to falafel or fish, or even as a meal on its own.
  • Louvi. You can eat this one warm in winter, or cold in summer — perfect for a home-prepared work lunch. “Louvi” is what they call black-eyed beans in Cyprus.

25 RECIPES FOR A MEDITERRANEAN DIET FEAST - THE SPRUCE EATS

From thespruceeats.com
  • Tomato Basil Hummus. APPETIZERS: Make a spread of nibbles for your next Mediterranean-style dinner party. Dips made with eggplant, Greek yogurt, and chickpeas are an easy and popular option, and all can be served with cut vegetables or pita chips.
  • Moroccan Olives with Harissa. APPETIZERS: A dish of marinated olives graces many a table in Mediterranean countries. They are simple to make and can help curb hunger until dinner.
  • Greek Eggplant Dip. APPETIZERS: Another great dip with ties to the Mediterranean, this version features eggplant as the main ingredient. It's great with pita chips or any crispy cut vegetables.
  • Tyrosalata. APPETIZERS: This spicy feta dip is one of the instances where cheese is the star of the Mediterranean diet. In general, this diet doesn't have a lot of dairy, but a hard cheese like feta is okay if eaten in moderation.
  • Za'atar Pita Chips. APPETIZERS: Add something crunchy and filling to the appetizer spread like these easy-to-make pita chips. There are only three ingredients: pita, olive oil, and za'atar seasoning.
  • Greek Egg-Lemon Chicken Soup. STARTERS: Really get the meal started with healthy salads and soups that feature ingredients such as tomatoes, olive oil, olives, fresh lettuce, lemon, garlic, and more.
  • Turkish Shepherd's Salad. STARTERS: The basis of this chunky salad is tomato, which gets mixed with peppers (hot or mild), feta, and cucumber. Add some olives as a garnish and serve with any meal.
  • Fakes Soupa. STARTERS: Hearty and rich, this Greek soup features lentils, tomatoes, garlic, and red wine vinegar, which gives it a pleasing brightness.
  • Mediterranean Chickpea Salad. STARTERS: Chickpeas lend a protein punch to this salad. There is no lettuce involved—just chunks of feta, crunchy peppers, fresh parsley, onion, and tomato.
  • Greek Salad With Lettuce and Lemon Garlic Dressing. STARTERS: This is a simple salad that features feta cheese, cucumber, tomato, and crisp lettuce. The dressing is made with lemon juice, olive oil, and garlic, which ties all the fresh foods together.
