Step-by-Step Instructions
- In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat until shimmering. Carefully add 1 pound of ground chicken, breaking it apart with a wooden spoon. Cook for about 6–8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the meat is browned all over and no longer pink.
- Once the ground chicken is browned, stir in 1 finely chopped onion and 3 cloves of minced garlic. Sauté for 2–3 minutes until the onion is translucent and fragrant.
- Next, toss in 1 diced bell pepper, 1 teaspoon of dried oregano, 1 teaspoon of smoked paprika, and 1 teaspoon of ground cumin along with salt and pepper to taste. Cook for an additional 3–4 minutes.
- Now, add 1 cup of halved cherry tomatoes and ½ cup of sliced Kalamata olives to the skillet. Stir gently and allow everything to cook for 5 minutes.
- Sprinkle ½ cup of crumbled feta cheese over the mixture in the skillet. Cook for an additional 2 minutes, watching as the creamy feta incorporates into the dishe.
- After removing the skillet from heat, stir in ¼ cup of freshly chopped parsley and 1 tablespoon of freshly squeezed lemon juice.
- Before serving, taste your Mediterranean Keto Ground Chicken Skillet, adjusting the seasoning if necessary. Enjoy warm.
