The Greek-style chicken skillet was easy to make and turned out delicious. The chicken was cooked perfectly and the sauce was flavorful. I served it over rice and it was a perfect meal.

This Greek-style chicken skillet was a hit with my family! The chicken was tender and juicy, and the sauce was flavorful and tangy. I loved the combination of lemon, oregano, and garlic. I will definitely be making this dish again.
