Notes

Greek Penne and Chicken: In a large pot with boiling the salted water cook the penne pasta until al dente. Drain.

Meantime, in a large skillet over medium-high temperature melt butter, add onion and garlic, and cook for 2 minutes. Add chopped chicken and continue cooking, occasionally stirring until golden brown, about 5 to 6 minutes.

Reduce heat to medium-low. Drain and chop the artichoke hearts and mix them, diced tomato, lemon juice, dried oregano, feta cheese, fresh parsley, and drained penne pasta to the large skillet. Cook it until heated through, approximately 2 to 3 minutes.

Season it properly with salt and ground black pepper. Serve warm.
