Stuffed Chicken Breasts (Greek Style)
- 1/2 cups Crumbled Feta Cheese
- 4 Tablespoons Chopped Fresh Basil
- 1/2 cups Sun-dried Tomatoes (packed In Oil), Chopped
- 1 Tablespoon Olive Oil (I Used Oil From The Sun-dried Tomatoes)
- 1/2 cups Kalamata Olives, Chopped
- 2 teaspoons Chopped Fresh Oregano
- 1/2 cups Chicken Broth (fat Free Low Sodium)
- 4 whole Boneless, Skinless Chicken Breasts
- 4 teaspoons Butter
- Salt And Pepper
- Combine feta cheese, basil (reserving about 2 teaspoons for garnish), sun-dried tomatoes and oil, kalamata olives, and oregano in a bowl.
- Mix and drizzle in a little chicken broth (reserve about 4 tablespoons for use later) to keep mixture moist.
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees.
- Trim any fat or yucky stuff off of chicken breasts.
- Place them in a large Ziploc bag with all of the air squeezed out; seal.
- Using a meat mallet, pound the chicken breasts until they are an even thickness.
- Using a very sharp knife, carefully cut a slit in the side of each of the chicken breasts, as far in as you can without coming out the other side, making a pocket.
- Tip: If you pound the breasts too thin, this will be difficult and you will probably blow a hole out the top or bottom of the breast (which totally isnt a huge deal), so just pound them until they are even.
- Stuff each breast with 1/4 of the feta cheese mixture.
- Salt and pepper both sides of the chicken breast.
- Place a small pat (teaspoon) of butter on a square of aluminum foil, place the stuffed chicken breast on top, drizzle with about a tablespoon of chicken broth and fold foil around chicken, sealing the edges.
- Repeat with remaining chicken breasts.
- Once the oven is preheated, put all four packets on a cookie sheet and bake for 20 25 minutes (depends on your oven).
- While the chicken is cooking, make a salad.
- When the chicken is done, you can either open up the packets (on the cookie sheet still) and broil for a couple minutes to turn the chicken golden brown, or just remove from the packets and serve.
- Enjoy!
