Jamie Oliver’s Stuffed Cypriot Chicken
One of our favorite ways to spend a Sunday, but don’t do enough is to have a band day, play some music, and make a meal together.
For our band meal this weekend, we decided to give one of Jamie Oliver‘s 30 minute meals a try. After watching the Stuffed Cypriot Chicken episode on youtube, we went out shopping and started making the dinner.
The meal took the 4 of us 1 hour to make instead of 30 minutes, but most of the time went to preparation. It’s still not bad for 4 dishes and a drink. The veggies literally took 5 minutes to cook. You’d really need a food processor to save chopping time though.
Still, it was a really easy meal to prepare and it was very flavorful and super yummy. We absolutely loved everything, and everything tasted really well together. It’s definitely worth the try making it.
Cooking and prep time: 1 hr.
See video for steps.

I stumbled upon your post while looking for others who’ve attempted the recipe. Everything you said is true! It took me an hour to make, mostly due to prep time, and all the flavors go together well. I added a few things and omitted some, but it still turned out very yummy!

Great recipe and thanks for putting up the video, however you forgot the FETA in the list of ingredients under the video. Luckily we found a 24 hour grocery!

lots of time was cleaning and figuring out how to use the food processor, and because our pan wasn’t big enough for all the chicken
