1 Tbs chopped mint (you can use fresh or dried)


800 gr. chicken breast fillets cut into bite size pieces

1/3 cup olive oil

1 cup chopped onions (you can use a mix of both fresh and dried)

2 Tbs chopped mint

400 gr. various cheeses grated (kasseri, crumbled feta, parmesan)

? kg full fat greek yoghurt

3 eggs slightly beaten

Salt and pepper to taste



Recipe



In a large bowl mix the ingredients for the marinade with the chicken and marinate for 1-2 hours.

Heat the oil in a pan and saute the marinated pieces of the chicken until they are almost cooked. Add the onions and saute for and additional 2-3 minutes. Remove from the heat and let the chicken mixture cool down a little.

In a large bowl mix the cheeses, chopped mint, salt and pepper. Add the yoghurt, the beaten eggs and the cooked chicken and mix well with a spoon.
