Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

Ingredients

1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon Spanish paprika
Pinch crushed red pepper flakes
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons olive oil
3 cloves garlic, grated
1 1/2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts, sliced 1/2-inch thick
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 cup couscous
1 cup full-fat Greek yogurt
Juice of 1 lemon
1 English cucumber, chopped
1 cup cherry tomatoes, quartered
1/2 cup pitted Kalamata olives, chopped
1/2 cup crumbled feta
2 tablespoons chopped fresh dill

Steps:

Whisk together the oregano, paprika, red pepper flakes, 1/4 cup olive oil, 2 cloves garlic and 1/2 cup water in the pot of a 6-quart Instant Pot®. Add the chicken, 2 teaspoons salt and a few grinds of pepper and toss until well coated.
Follow the manufacturer's guide for locking the lid and preparing to cook. Set the pot to pressure cook on high for 3 minutes (see Cook's Note). After the pressure cook cycle is complete, follow the manufacturer's guide for quick release and wait until the quick release cycle is complete. Be careful of any remaining steam and unlock and remove the lid. Transfer the chicken to a medium bowl and turn the pot off. Add the couscous, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper to the pot and stir to combine with the hot liquid. Place the glass lid on the top and let the couscous sit until tender and fluffy, 6 to 7 minutes. Fluff with a fork.
Meanwhile, mix together the yogurt, lemon juice, remaining clove garlic and 2 tablespoons water in a medium bowl until well combined. Spread 1/4 cup of the yogurt sauce on the bottom of a plate. Top with a quarter of the couscous, cucumbers, tomatoes, Kalamata olives and feta. Repeat with the remaining ingredients 3 more times. Garnish each plate with the dill and a drizzle of the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil.

INSTANT POT GREEK CHICKEN THIGH RECIPE (GF, WHOLE30)

Plug the Instant Pot in, making sure the lid is removed and the metal insert is inside. Press the Saute button and pour in 1/2 tbsp of oil into the metal insert. Let it warm up while you season the chicken thighs. Lay the chicken thighs out in a single layer on a cutting board. Sprinkle 1 tsp kosher salt and a bit of freshly ground black pepper (roughly 1/2 tsp) across the thighs. Take a pair of tongs and flip each thigh over and repeat on the other side with additional kosher salt and ground black pepper in the same quantities.
Once the metal insert has warmed up and the oil is hot, use the tongs to carefully place half of the seasoned thighs in a single layer in the Instant Pot. The hot oil will splatter so you may want to wear a kitchen glove or wrap a towel around your hand. Let the thighs cook for 5 minutes, uncovered (i.e. don't put the lid on the Instant Pot), then flip them over with the tongs and cook for another 4 minutes. You’ll know when they’re done as they will be easy to lift up from the insert. If they stick, they need another minute to sear. Remove them from the Instant Pot when done and set aside on a bowl or plate. (don’t set on cutting board as that has raw chicken juices on it). Repeat the same process with the remaining chicken thighs, pouring 1/2 tbsp more oil into the insert before setting the chicken thighs in. Remove them from the Instant Pot when done and set them on the same plate.
Once chicken has been seared, press the Keep Warm/Cancel button to turn off the heat. Drain the liquid from the kalamata olives and artichoke hearts, then pour them into the Instant Pot along with the the chicken broth, apple cider vinegar, diced tomatoes (don’t drain these), dried oregano, dried thyme, and garlic powder. Stir with a wooden spoon to combine, making sure to gently scrape off any browned bits on the bottom of the insert. Next, grab the seared chicken thighs with the tongs and place them in the Instant Pot, pouring any juice that was on the plate into the pot as well. Nestle them down into the veggie mixture so that they’re mostly covered.
Place the lid securely on the Instant Pot, making sure the plastic ring is in place on the inside of the lid. Set the valve (the little knob on the top) on the lid to Sealing, then press the Manual button to cook at High pressure (on older Instant Pot models, this is the only option). Set the time to 5 minutes by using the plus and minus buttons. The Instant Pot will take a while to come to pressure (roughly 5 to 10 minutes), then the display will turn to a number once it’s been pressurized.

Salt both sides of the chicken and let it sit for 20 at room temperature, don't skip this, it will really enhance the flavor.
Add the chicken thighs to a ziplock bag along with the remaining marinade ingredients, rub it well in to the chicken, remove the excess air from the bag before you close it, and let marinate for at least 4 hours or up to overnight. (I like to turn the ziplock bag over on the shelf in the fridge halfway through the marinate time. This allows the marinade to drain to the other side and more evenly marinate all the chicken pieces.
Remove the chicken and keep the ziplock bag with the remaining marinade. Add 1/4 cup water to the remaining marinade and to clean out the bag a little, this will be your liquid to pressure cook the chicken.
In a large cast iron skillet, add 1 tbsp olive oil and turn onto a medium heat. When hot add the chicken thighs skin side down and cook for about 8-10 minutes until skin is browned, then turn and brown the other side for about 2 minutes.

Instant Pot: Add all the ingredients to the Instant Pot and stir. Cook for 7 minutes and let naturally release. Shred the chicken using two forks and let it soak up the sauce for 5 minutes before serving.
Slow Cooker: Add everything to the slow cooker and cook on high for 3-4 hours or low for 6-8 hours. Shred the chicken using two forks and then let the chicken soak in the sauce for 10 minutes before serving.
Stovetop, oven, or grill: Marinate the chicken in the remaining ingredients for at least three hours before cooking. For extra tender chicken, add 1/4 cup of Greek yogurt to your marinade. Shake off excess marinade before cooking. For stovevop, heat a touch of olive oil in a pan and add the chicken thighs in a single layer. Cook 4-5 minutes until browned. Flip over and cook for 3-5 minutes until cooked through. Repeat if needed. For the grill, cook for 4-5 minutes per side. For the oven, bake at 425 degrees for 18-25 minutes, depending on thickness.
Make it crispy: This last step is optional but highly recommended to get the delicious crispy bits. Once your chicken is cooked and shredded, use a slotted spoon to place it on a baking sheet sprayed with cooking spray or covered in foil. Broil until browned and crispy, about 4-5 minutes.
