Ingredients
Scale
- 1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch cubes
- 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
- 1/4 cup hot honey (or to taste)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley (for garnish)
Instructions
- Step 1: Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). In a large bowl, toss the chicken cubes with olive oil, oregano, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Ensure the chicken is evenly coated.
- Step 2: Spread the seasoned chicken in a single layer on a baking sheet. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and lightly browned.
- Step 3: While the chicken is baking, prepare the hot honey feta mixture. In a small bowl, gently combine the crumbled feta cheese with half of the hot honey. You can adjust the amount of hot honey based on your desired spice level.
- Step 4: Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes. Then, gently toss the chicken with the hot honey feta mixture, ensuring each piece is coated.
- Step 5: Serve immediately, garnished with fresh parsley. Serve as is or over rice, quinoa, or roasted vegetables.
Notes
- Store leftover chicken in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
- Reheat gently in a skillet over medium-low heat to avoid drying out the chicken.
- Serve this vibrant dish over a bed of creamy polenta for a truly satisfying meal.
- For extra flavour, marinate the chicken in the oregano, garlic powder, salt, and pepper mixture for at least 30 minutes before baking.
