Instructions
Creating Chicken Feta Greek Pasta is simple when you follow these easy steps:
1. Cook the Pasta: In a large pot, bring salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
2. Sauté the Chicken: In the same pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced chicken and season with garlic powder, onion powder, oregano, salt, and pepper. Cook for about 5-7 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and no longer pink.
3. Add Vegetables: Stir in the cherry tomatoes and spinach. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the spinach wilts and the tomatoes soften.
4. Combine Ingredients: Add the cooked pasta back into the pot along with the Kalamata olives and feta cheese. Toss everything together gently to combine.
5. Adjust Seasoning: Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary, adding more salt or pepper as needed.
6. Serve: Plate the Chicken Feta Greek Pasta and garnish with fresh parsley. Enjoy while warm.
