You are going to love love love this recipe! I have been eating Greek Lemon Chicken since a child. My Mother is Greek ,So this was a very popular dish in my house growing up. I hope this becomes one in your home too .
Thanks Mom!
P.S - Whoever came up with the idea of Mashed cauliflower is an absolute GENIUS!!
Greek Lemon Chicken
1/2 cup Olive Oil
1 Lemon Juiced
1 Tsp Kosher Salt
1/4 Tsp Ground Pepper
1 Tsp Dried Oregano
1 Clove Fresh Garlic, Minced
2 skinless boneless Chicken- Breast halves
(There is plenty of marinade if you want to add more chicken)
In a large bowl, Combine Olive Oil, Salt,Pepper,Oregano,Garlic,and Lemon. Add Chicken to the bowl and toss until evenly coated.
Place Chicken on a hot Grill ,( I used a counter top Grill ) Cover & Cook for 6-8 Minutes on both sides or until juices run clear when Chicken is pierced with tip of Knife, Turning over once .
(You can always pop this chicken in the oven or cook on stove top)
Cauliflower Mash
I have to apologize I don't have Detailed pictures of this Recipe. It was my first time making this , The baby was screaming ,Phones were ringing , and I was really focused on making it right that I totally forgot to snap Pic's!
1 Head of Cauliflower, cut into Florets
5 Cloves of Garlic
1/3 cup Parmesan cheese
1/3 Cup Olive Oil
1 Tsp Kosher Salt
1/4 Tsp Ground Pepper
Preheat oven to 400 Degrees, Place Cauliflower and Garlic cloves in a shallow roasting dish.
Toss with a little olive oil just to coat!
Cover with Foil and bake for 15 minutes. Roast again uncovered 15 minutes, or until Cauliflower & garlic
are soft and lightly browned.
Using a food processor, puree cauliflower & garlic with olive oil. Add parmesan cheese, salt, pepper,and mix well.You want to end up with the Cauliflower having the consistency of mashed Potato's or Grits .
(thick, not runny)
(The mixture seemed a little dense so I added a splash or two of milk. After adding the milk, it was PERFECT!!
Butter or Chicken Broth would work too !)
VOILA!!!
I love Greek food, never had cauliflower mash, but it sounds delicious and can't wait to try it.
