Baked Greek Chicken

The Anchored Kitchen

Baked Greek Chicken is so flavorful and so easy. Serve this over rice but you can serve it over potatoes, quinoa, couscous or even orzo would be delicious.

The Perfect Salad

Greek Chicken Salad with Pita Croutons

Chef'd

The flavors of Greece come together in this main-dish salad packed with lemon zest, oregano, and mint for that life-on-the-Mediterranean feel. To perfectly cook the chicken breast, sear it in a hot pan to develop a golden crust, then reduce the heat and cover to trap in all the moisture.

Best of Everything

Grilled Greek Orzo Salad

Garlic & Zest

This recipe marries tender but crunchy grilled veggies with orzo pasta, chunks of feta, and a light, citrusy vinaigrette. Serve this alongside any grilled meats, and consider making a double batch, because it's real tasty!

Greeking Out

Sink Your Teeth Into This

Gyro Burger with Tzatziki and Tirokafteri

Adam Richman

Every bite is something different with this Grilled Lamb Pita, whether it's the spiced juicy lamb burger, the crunchy pistachio, the fresh mint, the dill, or the tart yogurt sauce. Pour yourself a nice glass of white wine after creating this outstanding dish; you deserve it.

Vegetarian dishes don’t have to be boring at all. Fried, crispy chickpea balls with sesame and herbs are best dipped in a sauce of your choice or stuffed in warm pita bread.

Completely vegan-friendly and gluten-free, these falafel are baked in a hot oven to make for a far lighter but no less tasty version than you could get at any side-street kebab shop!

Paleo Power Bars

Paleo "Baklava" Bars
