6 Easy Greek Chicken Recipes

The typical Greek flavorings for chicken are so well matched to the ingredient that they feel almost elemental, fixed in our culinary firmament by taste memories accumulated over the course of hundreds of cookouts. Lemon, garlic, oregano, red wine vinegar—these are ingredients many of us now associate with juicy, perfectly charred chicken.

Perhaps I’m guilty of universalizing my culinary upbringing. In any case, all of us at Serious Eats are big fans of the pairing of poultry with Greek ingredients. Here are several Greek and Greek-inspired recipes that capitalize on these flavors, with occasional help from other Greek staples like spinach, tart, creamy feta, and fresh dill.
