Dressing:

  • ¼ cup Olive Oil

Directions

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees.  Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or silicone liner

  • In a large bowl toss the big chicken pieces with ¼ cup of the cornstarch, salt and pepper and half of the seasoning mix.  Rest the chicken.  Cut up the peppers, onion and garlic. Place the peppers and onions on the lined baking sheet.  Drizzle a little olive oil and sprinkle salt and pepper on them.  Then place the chicken pieces amongst the peppers and drizzle a little olive oil over the chicken.   Roast or bake for about 25 minutes until the edges of the peppers have crisp up and the chicken is done.  
  • While the chicken is cooking, in a small bowl combine the feta cheese, rest of the spices and cornstarch and red pepper flakes.   In a saute pan, on medium to high heat drizzle a little olive oil.  Add the feta cheese mixture and cook until the feta cheese has crisp up a little and is soft.
  • In a small bowl combine all the ingredients for the dressings and mix together.
  • Serve the chicken and peppers over quinoa, rice, cauliflower rice or other preferred accompaniment, sprinkle some of the feta cheese and drizzle some of the dressing over all and garnish with parsley, cilantro and chives.  This goes well with a green salad too.
