One Pot Greek Pasta Recipe with Chicken + Video
This Greek Pasta recipe features bright Mediterranean flavors for a rich and creamy Greek pasta dish that cooks in one pan.
Ingredients
- 1 cup sun-dried tomatoes packed in oil and Italian herbs drained
- 1 large yellow onion sliced
- 1 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts cut into 1/2" pieces
- 6 cloves garlic sliced
- 1 cup Kalamata olives pitted and halved
- 1 pound linguine pasta uncooked
- 2 teaspoons dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 8 cups baby spinach leaves divided
- 4 cups chicken stock
- 1 cup Chardonnay
- 8 ounces feta cheese crumbled
Instructions
- Combine the tomatoes, onion, chicken, garlic, olives, linguine, oregano, pepper and salt with 4 cups of the spinach in a 12-inch braising pan or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Pour the chicken stock and the wine over the top.
- Cover and bring to a boil. Cook for 7 to 9 minutes, until the pasta is al dente (has a bite to it). Toss the pasta with tongs occasionally to keep it from sticking to the bottom of the pot. You will still have some liquid in the pan when the pasta is done cooking; this is going to make the base for our delicious cheese sauce.
- Turn off the heat and add the cheese to the pasta. Toss the pasta with tongs until the cheese melts into the pasta. Toss in the remaining 4 cups (120 g) of spinach.

Notes
To slice olives easily, grab two lids of the same size. You can use plasticware or lids from your fridge.
Place one lid with the lip facing up, so you have an edge that will hold your food. Fill the lid with pitted kalamata olives. Place the second lid on top of the olives with the lip facing down. Firmly press down on the top lid. The two lips will hold the olives in place, so they do not roll off the lid.
Slide your serrated knife between the lids and carefully slice through the olives. Watch your fingers. Now you have halved olives in the blink of an eye!
