Serving

It’s unbelievable that such an elegant dish comes together in just thirty minutes. You can boil some linguini, spaghetti, or your favorite pasta while cooking or serve the chicken with toasted crusty bread to sop up every drop of the luxurious sauce. To add a bit of freshness, I like to squeeze a little lemon over the top, and you could even give it a sprinkle of feta crumbles. Your family will wonder who’s coming for dinner when you make this meal, or you can actually have friends over. You will definitely impress whoever you serve it to. Kali Orexi!
