This Keto Greek Chicken Skillet is packed with Mediterranean flavors like lemon, olives, tomatoes, and artichokes!
This Keto Greek Chicken Skillet is truly the meal of my dreams, it’s got that crispy chicken skin, the briny olives, and all that saltiness is balanced perfectly with the freshness of the bursting tomatoes and lemon.
If you’ve been following Cast Iron Keto for a while you may already know I used to have an aversion to olives, but I’ve done a complete 180° and they are now one of my favorite foods, and you can tell by the amount in this fantastic one skillet dinner. Of course, if you aren’t as big an olive fan as I, feel free to reduce the amount.

Made the Greek Chicken and it was delicious!
Glad you enjoyed it Margie!
I made this recipe tonight. It was awesome! I used cut up chicken tenders instead, had them on hand.
Thank you.

This is amazing. I added some crumbled Feta to the chicken just before serving. It was a nice touch.
So much flavor! Used the Greek Mediterranean seasoning from CostPlus/World Market. So good! And a great keto recipe! Will definitively make again!
What is in Greek Seasoning if you only have a Walmart array of spices?
