We chose feta, olives, diced canned tomatoes, oregano and olive oil to accompany the chicken - all of which are the foundations of traditional Greek food. The chicken should first be fried until a nice crust forms, and then dipped in a fragrant sauce. We used Kalamata olives - the most outstanding Greek olives, but if you don't have Kalamata, use something else that is as close as possible to them.
