Greek Chicken

I found this recipe on the interweb, and it had the markings of a winner. We love Cava, and this was like making a bowl at home. And BONUS: it uses the instant pot and can be thrown together in 30 minutes. I was thinking this would be great in mason jars for lunch as well.

1/2 t. oregano

1/2 t. paprika

pinch of red pepper flakes

1 1/2 lb. chicken breasts cut into bite size pieces

1/4 c. olive oil

3 garlic cloves, minced

juice of one lemon

1 c. full fat Greek yogurt

cucumber

cherry tomatoes

Kalamata olives

1 c. feta cheese (I used flavored feta)

1 c. coucous

salt and pepper

Mince the garlic, cut the chicken, prepare tomatoes and cucumbers set aside.

Mix yogurt with lemon and 1 garlic clove and 2 T. water in a small bowl.

Mix paprika, oregano, pepper flakes and 2 minced garlic cloves with olive oil and 1/2 c. water in the instant pot. Add chicken 2t. of salt and a few grinds of pepper.

Cook on high pressure for 3 minutes and use instant release when cooking time is finished.

Remove chicken from the pot, and turn off the power. Pour in couscous, add 1/2 t. of salt and some pepper mix well and replace lid on the instant pot -- let sit for 7 minutes. 

Create serving plates by layering yogurt sauce, coucous, olives, cucumbers, tomatoes, chicken and feta on each plate.
