What the Greeks have contributed to our food culture cannot be understated. Inventing grilling 4,000 years ago, and even bread, the beginnings of fast food. I’ve been fortunate to grow up in a city of diverse cultures, and had many Greek friends . The combination of lemon , oregano, olive oil that’s frequently used is nothing short of magical. Let’s not forget the Greek salads with feta, anything more superior? Although many recipes to make this, I’m looking forward to making this . Looks like a winner hands down. Thank you.
@@jodifinnegan4453 Totally agree. The European bakers are masters of their craft. But if anyone is fortunate enough to experience an authentic Greek pastry shop, let’s just say it’s “sublime “.
Update. Just made this 5 star dinner for 4 people for 10$ .Easy , simple ,and crazy delicious . Used bone in skin on leg quarters , on sale 79 cents a pound. Dry brine garlic salt and oregano overnight. Put the leg quarters on the outside grill while rice was on the stove. Used bottled lemon juice, sorry. Used more oregano as well, because I love it. Legs back on the rice and in the oven for 20 minutes. Perfection. Made Greek style warm potato salad as well. The usual suspects, olive oil, lemon juice, ( or vinegar) oregano, salt pepper, added while potatoes are warm to absorb . Warm or cold, crazy delicious. Making this lemon chicken forever . Ps, my son hates dark meat, I saw a leg quarter missing , rice was gone.😱
Nice lady very friendly. One or two instructions not very bur no problems about that. As I like her very down to earth and friendly presentation. Great.
I had this at O'Hare airport of all places, by in the early 2000's. My dish had potatoes also... The rice was so good, the Chicken was excellent & the potatoes had my wanting more. I usually not a "thigh-guy" but this bowled me over. Gotta try this at home. *Thanks for reminding me*
Having only recently found you on TH-cam I’ve now made a couple of your dishes and fallen completely in love with Greek food ❤ can’t wait to make this one 🥰
Another winner! My husband and I both simply adore your recipes! I have boneless skinless chicken thighs in my house, so I think you can guess what I'll be making this week exclamation😊
Thank you so much for sharing. It looks delicious!!.. It reminded me of Arroz con Pollo. The lemon must give it an awesome kick .I will try and make it ❤
I absolutely love your dishes that you bring to video!! I have made yourspanakopita before it is absolutely the best!!!❤ Thank you for sharing all of these wonderful dishes I can't wait to make this. Oh by the way I'm actually making your zucchini galatte tonight!!!!😊
Thank you for the love and enthusiasm! 🥰 Your kind words mean the world to me. I'm thrilled that you enjoyed the spanakopita, and I'm sure the zucchini galette will be a hit too. Have a fantastic time cooking, and remember, if you have any questions or want to share your culinary creations, I'm here and excited to hear all about it! Happy cooking! 🍽️😊
I love your recipes! Every time I make chicken and rice, the rice is always undercooked. Before I try this, could you please give me any tips to prevent this? Thank you.
Lower heat, keep the lid on, and cook for longer. Every time you remove the lid, you’re releasing steam, which cooks the rice from the top down. Bring it to a boil, and lower the heat down low and leave it alone for at least 20-25 minutes (in a dish like this) if you keep the heat too high, it’ll burn to the bottom. Use an instant read thermometer on the chicken if you use that in your dish and ensure it gets to at least 160F degrees before removing from the pan and resting.
Haha, no worries! Souvlaki is never a bad idea. But hey, next time I'll be here with the video to join your cooking party! Enjoy your delicious Souvlaki feast! 🍢👨🍳🎉
Have you tried burying the chicken breast under the rice prior to cooking to prevent the drying out (or is it primarily temperature control for breast?)? My wife doesn’t like the thigh meat but also doesn’t like dry breast. Thank you for your efforts to make well edited teaching videos.
The water of rinse rice could be used for your face. Put rinse rice water on your clean face before you go to bed. Wash your face in the morning. After a week, your skin face would be lighter.
In uk I use aluminium foil for my hob top(you call it stove top). When the annual gas inspection was carried out I failed as the foil was a fire risk so I could not use it again.
The water/rice ratio is off, rice was al dente. 2 cups rice should be way more than 2 cups water. Took chicken out and put on stove with more water, stirred, and continued to cook then steam. I used boneless skinless breasts but added them for the last 20 minutes of cooking in oven. Took temp, added 5 more min and was good. That's when I realized rice was under cooked. Otherwise tasty.
I made it with 1 cup rice and two cups water 'cause it looked off to me too and the rice turned out excellent (I cooked it on the stovetop and not in the oven)
Absolutely, I'd love to know how it turns out! Feel free to share the culinary adventure. Sending good vibes right back at you - happy cooking and enjoy your supper! 🍽️😄👨🍳

Making this tonight! Would it come out good if I add some olives?

@@DimitrasDishes thanks 😊
Great as slways 👍👍👍🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🍀🥀🍃🌹🌿
What if you want to do the recipe with brown rice? Would that work you think? If so, how?
I made this tonight and it was delicious. Only thing was my thighs were a bit too dry. Any tips on how to prevent this?
Have you tried burying the chicken breast under the rice prior to cooking to prevent the drying out (or is it primarily temperature control for breast?)? My wife doesn’t like the thigh meat but also doesn’t like dry breast. Thank you for your efforts to make well edited teaching videos.
Also, I’ll be making your Spanakopita for my high school reunion in a few weeks. Thank you for your videos that reduce the ‘barrier’ to entry.
What vegetable would you recommend to add to the rice? Peas, carrots, green beans?
Perfect winner chicken dinner !!! Can't wait till I make this !!!!!!!!!!!!!❤🎉
The water of rinse rice could be used for your face.
Put rinse rice water on your clean face before you go to bed. Wash your face in the morning. After a week, your skin face would be lighter.
I make Lemon Italian Chicken 🍗🐔 also. Very good.
In uk I use aluminium foil for my hob top(you call it stove top). When the annual gas inspection was carried out I failed as the foil was a fire risk so I could not use it again.
I need a screen guard thingy
Lol 😂
Me too. I was like...ooooh I need this thing. 😅
Yuuuummmm‼️
👌👌👌
😋😋😋

hmmm, interesting. I've been cooking rice with this ratio of water for so many years. Which rice did you use?
It was basmati rice. I googled and it is classified as a long grain rice. Maybe basmati needs more soaking time.

I made it with 1 cup rice and two cups water 'cause it looked off to me too and the rice turned out excellent (I cooked it on the stovetop and not in the oven)
Typical Greek, she actually reuses the foil😂 looks delicious
