Feta Chicken
- 4 Chicken Breasts
- 3 Shallots (finely chopped)
- 8 ounces Can of Crushed Tomatoes
- 1 teaspoon Dried Basil
- 1 teaspoon Dried Rosemary
- 1 teaspoon Thyme
- 1 teaspoon Dried Sage
- 1 teaspoon Dried Marjoram
- 1 teaspoon White Pepper
- 1.5 tablespoons Oregano
- 2 Bay Leaves
- Juice of Half a Lemon
- 1/2 cup White Wine(I like Chardonnay)
- 1 tablespoon Chopped Kalamata Olives
- 1 cup Crumbled Feta Cheese
- 1/2 cup Grated Parmesan Cheese
- Pound the chicken breasts to an even thickness of about a half inch.
- Combine the basil, rosemary, thyme, sage, marjoram, and pepper then rub onto the chicken, coating both sides of each piece.
- Heat olive oil in a cast iron pan on medium heat, then add chopped shallots and teaspoon of the oregano. Cook until translucent then add chicken breasts. Let the chicken cook for about 2 minutes then flip to cook the other side for another 2 minutes.
- Add the tomatoes, the bay leaves, the rest of the oregano, lemon juice and wine. Cover pan with lid, turn heat down to a simmer until the chicken is fully cooked, then remove the chicken and transfer to warming dish.
- Continue to simmer tomato sauce until it thickens a little, stirring occasionally, then add the cheeses and olives. Let it simmer for another minute or two. Remove bay leaves.
- Lay chicken over your grain of choice and top with a generous spoonful of the sauce. Serve with a glass of the wine you used for the sauce.
- Save any excess sauce for next time! It's good with shrimp, over pasta or just on toast.
