This recipe takes me back to sunlit kitchens filled with the scent of oregano and fresh olives. It’s a one-pan wonder that feels like a vacation on a plate—simple, wholesome, and bursting with flavor. Whether you’re on keto or just love Mediterranean food, this skillet is a winner. Try it tonight and enjoy a taste of the coast at your own table.
1 tbsp olive oil
1 lb ground chicken
1/2 onion, finely chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 tsp dried oregano
Salt & pepper to taste
1/2 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
1/4 cup sliced kalamata olives
1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese
Fresh parsley or basil for garnish
Optional: spinach or zucchini for extra veggies
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Sauté onion and garlic until fragrant (about 3 minutes).
Add ground chicken, oregano, salt, and pepper. Cook until browned, breaking it up as it cooks (8–10 minutes).
Stir in cherry tomatoes and cook until they soften (about 3–4 minutes).
Add olives and cook for 2 more minutes.
Turn off the heat, sprinkle with crumbled feta and fresh herbs.
Serve hot—great on its own or over cauliflower rice!
Use ground turkey if you prefer a milder flavor.
Add lemon zest for a fresh finish.
Keep leftovers—they’re even better the next day!
