Mediterranean Comfort Food


We tend to think of Mediterranean food as fresh, light and flavorful, but there is a comfort food side to Mediterranean cuisine that's not as well known. Alex and Sonja Overhiser wrote the new cookbook, A Couple Cooks, and stopped by Tonia's Kitchen to talk about their recipe for the Creamy Mediterranean Chicken Skillet. It's a cream-based sauce, which adds to the heartiness of the dish. Both Sonja and Alex told Tonia they start with garlic, Olive Oil and butter, along with spinach for a true Mediterranean. Not exactly what you might be thinking when it comes to Mediterranean food, but it's delicious anyway!
