Easy and nutritious dish for your Summer meals!
We certainly love Summer for many reasons, one of them being all the fresh Summer vegetables we can enjoy in our meals. Fresh tomatoes, zucchinis, eggplants, peppers, all of them make our meals delicious and very nutritious. So, today we are cooking chicken breasts with summer vegetables, a Mediterranean dish. Easy to make, yet so delicious!
Ingredients:
- 650 gr chicken breasts
- 5-6 medium-sized potatoes
- 2 zucchinis
- 1 eggplant
- 4 ripe tomatoes
- 1 green pepper
- 1 onion
- 200 – 300 ml chicken stock
- Salt
- Mix of herbs de Provence (oregano – rosemary – thyme – marjoram – basil)
- Olive oil
- Feta cheese for serving.
Preparation time: 20 minutes
Cook time: 1 hour
Preheat the oven at 220o C. Peel the potatoes and the zucchinis and slice them. Also slice the eggplant and mix them all together into a baking pan. Add salt.
Peel and cut into small pieces the onion and add it into the pan.
Peel the tomatoes and put them into a blender. Add the green pepper and blend them well, in order to become a tomato juice.
Cut the chicken breasts into small pieces and put them on top of the vegetables into the baking pan. Add salt.
Pour in the chicken stock (if you like your meal to be very juicy, add 300 ml of chicken stock, otherwise, if you prefer it dryer, add 200 ml).
Then add the tomato juice from the blender.
Pour olive oil on top and then the mix of herbs.
Bake at 220o C for about 1 hour.
Serve with feta cheese to make your dish more delicious! Take a piece of feta cheese and mash it using a fork, then add it on top of your serving.
You will love this dish, I promise you! So, why don’t you try it and let me know what you think!
This looks absolutely delicious! I can’t wait to get a chance to try and make it. (I got no oven. T_T And no stove. Poor student life.)
Your post made me hungrier than I was before I checked it out, hahaha.
Maybe you’ll get a chance to try it on your next visit back home. I’m sure your whole family will enjoy it! 🙂 Thank you. <3
This looks so amazing. I’m about to eat lunch and I wish I had this to eat instead! I’ve just seen your comment on my blog post and I’ve also been slightly away from blogging because of work and graduate school stuff. So I’ll do my best to stay in touch!

It’s a very delicious meal, you should definitely try it, when you have time for cooking. Working and studying and blogging at the same time is really hard, so just set your priorities and do not forget to take good care of yourself! 🙂
