    Greek Island Chicken, This recipe is an internet find, though I’ve forgotten where Its quick to put together, and served over rice, coucous or orzo makes an entire meal I’m not sure how authentically Greek it is, but we like the flavor combinations: the sweetness of the cinnamon and the honey balanced by the acidity of the wine and lemon Make sure to use a drinkable wine for best results , This was easy to make and tasted good I will make this with MORE lemon next time , I agree with the earlier comments about how overpowering the lemon is (but I stupidly did not heed those comments prior to making it) I’d either use a tiny bit of lemon juice or none at all And just because my family is a little fussy, I’d finely chop instead of cut into strips the pepper to hide it from them better
