Heat a skillet over medium heat and add 2 tablespoons of olive oil.
Pan-fry the chicken in 2-3 batches about 5 minutes per side for the cutlets depending on the thickness. Chicken is ready when the internal temperature reaches 165 °F. Chicken tenders take about 3 minutes per side. Set the chicken aside.

Add the lemon zest, thyme, and oregano to the sauce. Once it warms through
Add the cooked pasta to the sauce along with the heavy cream, 1 cup of pasta water, and season with salt, if needed. Toss together and taste.

I am not and don’t speak Greek, but find it interesting to learn the greetings in the videos.😁🤗💖 Enjoy your recipes, love Za’tar and Sumac spices in Greek and Turkish recipes.

I grew up in a small city with a Greek and an Italian minority. Greek food wasn't well known so many Italian Food Restaurants were run by Greeks. By far, the best Italian Food was made by the Greeks.
That looks SOOOOOO GOOD!
delicious!
Yummy
Outstanding!
Excited for this sunday october 29th....it will be supper for mom's birthday !
Would love to have you make a video on Greek coffee using your ‘ expresso pot’ sitting on your kitchen stove.😊
I’ll be cooking this this week! Thanks
Gonna try this tomorrow... BUT PLEASE clarify if it's Extra Virgin or not. It wasn't til I paused it at 10:24 that I noticed you used extra virgin! Can't wait to try make it! I've been on a pasta kick!!
Thanks for all of your videos! But I need to share something with you. The pita bread in the air fryer worked great. But everyone needs to know that the excess flour can catch fire....
Loved it
OMG τρέχουν τα σάλια μου 🤤
I must make this, it looks insanely yummy & comforting 🙏🤗
Haha!! Kali Orexi :)

Πάντα υγεία σε εσένα και την οικογένειά σου 🥂🙏🇦🇺🇬🇷
Looks SENSATIONAL ! 💙💚
Dimitra, do you have a GARDEN by chance? 🌱🌱
Dimitra,
I've been making your chicken shawarma recipe and it was a huge hit with my family. It is absolutely delicious!
Thank you so much for sharing high quality Greek/Mediterranean recipes on YT.
In another video you mentioned that you are located in Houston and couldn't find bread flour anywhere. I am in Houston as well and am having the same problem.
Where have you been getting your bread flour? Or do you only use all-purpose now?
Do you host in person cooking classes as well for advanced recipes?
By the way, have you been to Phoenicia (on westheimer)? It is amazing!
Thanks!
I don't know Houston but here in Austin I find King Arthur's Bread Flour in HEB markets and whole foods market.
@@nejlaaltay6822
I can't find bread flour in any HEB near my area. Guess driving to whole foods once a month will have to do
thanks!
Yum! 🤗👍😋

What is the Greek for fresh parsley? I can only find dried.
Delicious, but whats about the Scampi? The combination seems interesting. 😋
That’s what I was wondering 🤷🏻♀️
What flour could I use to make this gluten free?
Looks nice but doesn't scampi mean shrimp or prawn?
Hello Dimitra ! I love this meal I have made this several times . But I have a question for you.... Where did you get your apron with the Greek key design ?
Thank you!! You can get the apron in my shop. Here’s the link :)www.dimitrasdishes.com/product-category/aprons/
Thank you my little Greek sister ! !
I wanted to say something else, when your cooking I do the same things you do when I'm showing my son how to cook ! Ha I say now you can add this but if it's spicy for you then eliminate it ! Love your videos thanks dear
Looked up the site . Bummer they don't have it in more of a guy style . But it's very cool 😎 thanks again looking forward to seeing you again
The title says scampi??
Could I use COCONUT FLOUR / other - for dredging? 💥💥
🤤😋
Demi please give me a recipe of guails. Bird in greek. Food please asap
I'm making this right, using a fine spaghetti..😗
Sounds great!

Where are the capers
Getting my info from zaina hussein
Sorry, I pressed the dislike bottom by mistake, I love your videos, you are the best cook!
Ok, but why scampi pasta? Where are the scampi?
Is this piccata or scampi? Why so much lemon? I’m confused
It's not the middle East but Africa. I have some things to tie up and will let you know. Think black hawk down...
I will see what the yoga is like here and depending on what is what and now I know how buses work will take a look at hot yoga
Every industry has these terms. Okay. Zest. I thought it was soap, but okay. Lemon peel / skin? I will try to not put soap in my dish. ha ha I see this in recipes. Is it really tasting good? So, I guess only the outside yellow portion.
Looks delicious
