Mediterranean Chicken with Rice

I love Mediterranean chicken with rice and it’s a very easy recipe to make.  It’s also very healthy.  Quinoa would also be good with this chicken dish.

Ingredients:

• 4 skinless chicken breasts
• juice of 1 to 2 lemons
• olive oil
• 2 to 3 tablespoons Italian seasoning
• 2 garlic cloves, minced
• 1 package of cherry, grape or cherub tomatoes
• 1/2 cup of kalamata olives
• 1/2 yellow onion, finely chopped

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 350.
2. Place the 4 chicken breasts in a baking dish.
3. Drizzle olive oil on both sides of the chicken as well as coat both sides with the Italian seasoning.
4. Sprinkle the minced garlic over the top as well as the lemon juice and onions.
5. Cut the tomatoes in halve and spread them over the top of the chicken.
6. Add the kalamata olives over the top.
7. If you want, you can add more of the Italian seasoning to make sure it coats the vegetables as well.
8. Cook in the over for approximately 40 minutes.
9. Serve the chicken over rice or quinoa.
