Greek Chicken with Herby Rice and Salad

  • Family Friendly
  • Fast

A classic Greek salad shares the attention here with a dill-flecked rice that takes on the rich flavour of the chicken it cooks with. This one has next-day lunch vibes, so we highly recommend making extra to pack away for tomorrow.
