Mediterranean Inspired Paleo Chicken

My best friend eats a Mediterranean diet, so I'm always excited to come up with a dish that marries both of our eating styles. Mediterranean eaters and primal eaters can generally find some overlap, but this dish is perfect! Unfortunately she works in a different town three days a week and by the time she gets back this Thursday I think it will all be gone ;-)

Mediterranean Inspired Paleo Chicken:


Ingredients:
  • 1 lb chicken breasts
  • 1 head of cauliflower
  • 1 cup Kalamata olives
  • thyme sprigs
  • 1/4 cup lemon juice
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • garlic
  • salt
  • pepper
Cover the bottom of a baking dish with thyme sprigs and layer chicken breasts on top. Fill the rest of the empty space in the baking dish with chopped cauliflower and olives. Mix together lemon juice, olive oil, garlic, and salt and pepper and pour over dish. Marinade for 1 hour or overnight then bake at 400 degrees and bake for 45 minutes.
