Preparation Step 1

Start by preparing your ingredients. Dice 100 grams of cooked chicken, chop 50 grams each of bell peppers, onions, and eggplant. Crumble 30 grams of feta cheese and set aside. Measure out 10 grams of cooking oil and prepare your spices: paprika, cumin, and salt according to your taste.

Cooking Step 1

In a large skillet or wok, heat the cooking oil over medium heat. Once hot, add the onions and sauté until they start to become translucent, about 2-3 minutes.

Cooking Step 2

Add the bell peppers and eggplant to the skillet. Continue sautéing for 5-6 minutes, or until the vegetables begin to soften and brown lightly.

Cooking Step 3

Next, add the diced chicken to the skillet. Stir well to combine, and continue cooking for another 5-7 minutes, ensuring the chicken is heated through and the vegetables are tender.

Finishing Step

Sprinkle the mixture with your chosen spices (paprika, cumin, and salt) to taste, and stir well. Cook for an additional minute to allow the flavors to meld. Finally, remove the skillet from the heat, and sprinkle the crumbled feta cheese over the top before serving.
