Step-by-Step Instructions
- Begin by chopping your chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces, ensuring uniform cooking. Slice zucchini into half-moons, dice red bell peppers, and cut red onion into strips. Halve the cherry tomatoes and pits from the Kalamata olives. Mince garlic and chop sun-dried tomatoes.
- Heat 2 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once the oil shimmers, add the chicken pieces, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is golden brown and cooked through. The internal temperature should reach 165°F for safety. Once done, transfer the chicken to a plate and keep warm.
- In the same skillet, add the sliced red onion and minced garlic, sautéing for 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Then, introduce the zucchini and diced bell peppers and cook for another 3-4 minutes, stirring frequently.
- Return the cooked chicken to the skillet with the sautéed vegetables. Add the halved olives, chopped sun-dried tomatoes, and a sprinkle of dried oregano, basil, and thyme. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
- To brighten up the dish, squeeze fresh lemon juice over the stir fry right before serving. Sprinkle crumbled feta cheese on top.
