Easy Recipe: Green Chicken and Rice

So last night, in need of a quick dinner-- and wanting to use up some "almost-bad" cherry tomatoes, I whipped up this Greek chicken dish.

So here is the result:

So here's what you need:
Olive oil
Sea Salt
Pepper
1 Clove garlic
Cherry tomatoes (I used a half pint, though more is preferable)
1/2 of a Red Onion
1/3 of a block of FF Feta (or the real thing if you aren't watching your waist line)
2 cups cooked brown rice
1 lb Chicken Tenders

AND THE SECRET INGREDIENT THAT MAKES IT SO FAB:


yum.yum.yum
So here is what to do:
Cook chicken with 1 tsp olive oil, a pinch of sea salt, pepper and the clove of garlic until just cooked.
Remove Garlic Clove (it will burn if you keep it in)
Add Red Onion
Keep cooking chicken until it browns (my stove is on medium now)

Add 2 tbsp of the Yasou (delish!)
Mix around with the chicken and onion, cook 1 minute

Add tomatoes and add feta, mix
Add another tsp of the Yasou, mix

I covered and let it simmer for about 3 minutes-- this softens the feta and makes the tomatoes so good.

Serve over 1/2 cup Brown rice Per person  :) Viola!

Total Kitchen time: Around 40 minutes, including prep time, chopping,  and rice cooking
