Welcome Back To Episode 55 of All Things Greek. A

Welcome Back To Episode 55 of All Things Greek. A series where I share recipes from MY childhood and family and memories from summers spent growing up in Greece. Today I’m making a bomb flavour combo that my mom used to cook for us! Homemade Chicken Meatballs with a Butter Lemon Sauce.

This chicken meatballs recipe is so tasty. They are protein-packed and mixed with the delicious flavors of feta, oregano, olives, and sundried tomatoes — you’ll notice they are very similar to the our Keftedes recipe from Episode 49 of All Things Greek. We elevated them by adding homemade Ground Chicken, a gorgeous lemon sauce and feta! This recipe is such a good one for those busy weeknights. You can even prep these in advance for the week to toss in salads, eat on their own, or with rice and other delicious side dishes.

It’s paired with the most delicious lemon sauce. It’s rich and citrus-forward. You can seriously put it on anything. It’s great on fish, chicken, a side of veggies, or meatballs and rice. You’re going to love it.

Here’s everything you need to make our Homemade Chicken Meatballs:

Ingredients:

* 1 small yellow onion
* 3 garlic cloves
* 450-500 g (about 1lb) chicken breasts cut into 1-inch pieces
* 3 tbsp olive oil divided
* 1 egg
* 1/2 cup feta cheese crumbled
* 1/2 cup panko breadcrumbs
* 2 tsp dried oregano
* 1/4 tsp chili flakes
* 1/4 cup green olives chopped
* 1/4 cup sundried tomatoes
* 1 tsp salt
* 1/2 tsp pepper

Ingredients for the Lemon Sauce can be found in my bio!

Notes: If you don’t have a food processor, you can make these meatballs with ground chicken and make sure to mince and/or dice all of the ingredients before mixing together to form the meatballs.

Welcome Back to Episode 53 of All Things Greek! To

Welcome Back to Episode 53 of All Things Greek! Today we are making Κοτόπουλο με πατάτες λεμονάτο στο φούρνο BUT WITH SOME VEGGIES TOO - AKA Greek Baked Lemon Chicken, Veggies and Potatoes. Being made by a Greek Gal with AUTHENTIC GREEK parents!

The concept here is very simple, everything stays the same… Just add everything to the casserole dish and let it bake. The aroma that’ll fill your house will make your mouth water.

Growing up my mama was VERY busy, as I’ve shared before. So, putting together a nourishing meal wasn’t always the easiest task especially since some Greek meals take a long time to cook or prep. So this meal was her GO TO! We always had it with Chicken and Potatoes but SO many of you made it and requested some veggies I thought I’d create something that is the perfect, balanced meal. Carbs, Protein, Fat and Fibre. I know you are going to love this and I think it’s going to become your go to meal in a pinch.

PLEASE NOTE: The yellow mustard isn’t something my mother did when we were growing up. It’s completely OPTIONAL! This is a new trend among new-age Greeks BUT it is wonderful. You must try. I don’t want to hear you bashing it unless you give it a try.

Here’s is everything you will need to make my family’s meal.

INGREDIENTS:

6x skin on bone in chicken thighs
3x medium yellow-fleshed potatoes, cut into wedges then halved (about 1 1/2 – 2 inch pieces)
1x zucchini, cut into 1 ½ inch pieces
1x red pepper, cut into 2 inch pieces
1x red onion, cut into wedges then halved (about 1 1/2 – 2 inch pieces) 
Sauce:  
juice of 2 lemons
2 tsp chicken stock paste
1/2 cup olive oil
10 garlic cloves smashed
1 1/2 tbsp yellow mustard
2 tsp salt
1 tsp pepper
1 1/2 tbsp dried oregano
2 1/2 tsp garlic powder
fresh oregano for garnish
