For Pesach: Greek Chicken


Ever since I bought Susie  Fishbein‘s Passover by Design cookbook, I’ve been using her chicken recipes all year round . Her Greek Garlic Chicken is so quick and easy, and really looks gourmet. Use this recipe for your Passover Seder and your guest will think that you took a gourmet cooking class.

The fresh oregano and some fresh sliced lemons should be sprinkled on top as a garnish!

Kosher Recipe Ingredients:

2 chickens, cut into eighths, skinned

2 onions, cut into chunks

2-3 lemons

12-16 sprigs of oregano

8 cloves of freshgarlic, halved

sea salt, black pepper

1/2 cup of olive oil

1 cup of Passover white cooking wine

1 and 1/2 cup of pitted kalamata olives

1/2 cup  whole kalamata olives for garnish

Directions for this Kosher Recipe:

  • Preheat oven to 450 degrees
  • Place chicken pieces in a roaster. (I buy my chicken pieces without the skin.)
  • Add the onion chunks. Slice the lemons legnthwise and squeeze the lemons over the chicken.
  • Throw the lemon slices over the chicken. Scatter some whole and  some stripped oregano leaves over the chicken.
  • Add the garlic and season with salt and pepper.
  • Drizzle with oil and wine.
  • Toss the mixture together.
  • Sprinkle chopped olives over chicken.
  • Baked covered, if using chicken without the skin, bake until chicken is fully cooked  and uncover for 15 minutes till brown in color.
  • Garnish with fresh oregano and sliced lemons.
