Lemon Greek Chicken

    Cuisine:

    After returning from Greece I was searching to duplicate this recipe. This came closest. I followed the recipe exactly the first time. It was delicious. The onions were transformed. I however would like more sauce for basting and dipping later. So I increased the lemon juice zest and lucky me lemon olive oil from Greece. It's a great dish.

    Lemon Greek Chicken, Hearty one dish meal I always serve it with some crusty, hot fresh breadto get the last of the juices! This is so yummy I wish I could take total credit for it but I revised it slightly from The Pampered Chef’s Stoneware Sensations Cookbook Hope you enjoy it as much as we do! NOTE: Per request I revised this from my original post to reduce fat and calories Please let me know if you like the new version as much as the old The potatoes will cook much faster if you microwave them for a few minutes before placing them in the pan with the rest of the veggies , After returning from Greece I was searching to duplicate this recipe This came closest I followed the recipe exactly the first time It was delicious The onions were transformed I however would like more sauce for basting and dipping later So I increased the lemon juice zest and lucky me lemon olive oil from Greece It’s a great dish , I thought it was good too! used Greek Seasoning and sprinkled it with a little bit of Feta Cheese TASTY!

    2
    Done

    Spray a 10x13 Pan With Cooking Spray and Preheat Oven to 350 Degrees F. (use a Larger Pan If You Have It. the More Room the Stuff Has to Spread Out the Better It Cooks).

    3
    Done

    Rinse Potatoes and Cut Into Fourths. Leave Skin on If You Like. Place in Pan.

    4
    Done

    Add Bell Pepper Strips, Onion Wedges and Mushrooms to Pan.

    5
    Done

    Drizzle Half the Lemon Juice Mixture Over Veggies and Toss to Coat.

    6
    Done

    Place Chicken on Top and Drizzle the Remaining Lemon Mixture on Top and Brush or Rub Into Meat. use the Back of a Spoon or My Fingers.

    7
    Done

    Bake Until Chicken Is No Longer Pink in Center Basting After 15 Minutes.

    8
    Done

    Note: to Reduce Fat and Calories Reduce the Olive Oil as Much as You Desire and Use Boneless Skinless Chicken. Bake For 1 Hr If Using the Bone in Chicken.

    9
    Done

    Important:::: If the Potatoes Are Still not Done but the Chicken Is -- Remove the Chicken and Cover With Foil- Keep Warm -- Continue to Cook the Potatoes Until Done and Return the Chicken to the Pan to Serve -- This Will Keep the Chicken from Getting Dry If the Potatoes Need Extra Baking Time! and You Can Toss the Foil For No Mess Clean Up!

    10
    Done

    Use a Stoneware Pan If You Have One. They Conduct the Heat Better and the Dish Cooks Faster. You May Need to Adjust the Time If Using a Metal or Glass Pan.

    11
    Done

    I Always Add More Onions, Peppers and Mushrooms and Get My Pan Way Too Full! Do not Be Tempted to Do the Same- I Have Found It Works Better to Double the Sauce and Veggies When I Want and Cook Them Separately from the Meat. Everything Gets Done Faster and More Evenly.
