Greek Chicken & Baby Update

Our baby is now a month old!  It has been quite a month full of concerns, joys, doctor appointments, trips to the hospital, sleepless nights, and lots of sweet baby snuggles.  I went into labor early and delivered at 34 weeks.  Baby has done better than expected, but is definitely a bit more difficult to care for.  As we are reaching the magical "due date," things seem to be normalizing.  These are the times in life when I reflect on the many blessings in my life!  We have had so much generosity thrown our way in childcare, rides, gifts, prayers and meals.  Our neighbors, family and church family have kept my family well fed.  One sweet friend brought this chicken to us and we all loved it.  She gave me the recipe and I made it over the weekend and everyone liked it again!  It needs to sit in the marinade, so you do have to think ahead, but then it just needs to be cooked.   A super easy, delicious main dish.  Leftovers were great chopped up on a salad for lunch the next day. 


Greek Chicken
1.5-2 lbs boneless skinless chicken breasts
1/4 cup olive oil
