Step-by-Step Instructions
- Begin by seasoning the chicken thighs with dried oregano, paprika, salt, and red pepper flakes, allowing to rest for maximum flavor.
- Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Cook seasoned chicken thighs for about 5 minutes until golden brown.
- Flip the chicken, reduce the heat, and cook for an additional 5 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
- In the same skillet, add another tablespoon of olive oil, halved grape tomatoes, minced garlic, dried oregano, and a sprinkle of salt. Sauté for about 2 minutes.
- Stir in chopped fresh spinach and allow to wilt for 1-2 minutes.
- Add cooked jasmine rice and drained chickpeas, along with fresh lemon juice and remaining tomatoes. Toss and reheat for 2-3 minutes.
- In a separate bowl, combine diced feta cheese, extra virgin olive oil, lemon juice, and fresh oregano.
- Mix half of the feta into the rice mixture, slice the cooked chicken, and return to the skillet.
- Plate the dish, topping with the remaining feta mixture and fresh oregano leaves for garnish.
