Step-by-Step Instructions for Greek Chicken Casserole
  1. Begin by gathering the ingredients for your Greek Chicken Casserole. Chop the onions and bell peppers into bite-sized pieces, and mince the garlic until fragrant.
  2. In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onions and minced garlic. Sauté for about 3-5 minutes, until the onions become translucent.
  3. Add the boneless, skinless chicken pieces to the skillet, seasoning them with oregano, basil, salt, and pepper. Cook for about 5-7 minutes until browned on all sides.
  4. Once the chicken is browned, stir in the bell peppers, Greek yogurt, and cheese. Mix thoroughly to create a luscious filling.
  5. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Pour the chicken mixture into a greased 9x13-inch baking dish and spread evenly.
  6. Bake for approximately 35 minutes until the casserole is bubbling and golden brown on top.
  7. After baking, let the casserole cool, then garnish with freshly chopped parsley and serve warm.
