Ingredients

• 2 small chicken breast portions
• 2 medium potatoes, diced
• 2 cups of greens (spinach, kale, or your choice)
• 3 tablespoons olive oil
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• Salt and pepper to taste
• Juice of 1 lemon (optional)

Instructions

1. Prep the Chicken: In a bowl, combine the chicken breasts with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, paprika, oregano, salt, and pepper. Let it marinate for about 10 minutes.

2. Cook the Potatoes: In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced potatoes and cook for 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are golden and tender.

3. Add Garlic: Once the potatoes are almost done, add the minced garlic and sauté for another minute until fragrant.

4. Cook the Chicken: Push the potatoes to one side of the skillet and add the marinated chicken breasts. Cook for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until the chicken is cooked through and has a nice golden color.

5. Incorporate the Greens: Add the greens to the pan and toss them with the potatoes and chicken. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the greens are wilted.
