Ingredients
- 4 boneless and skinless chicken breasts
- 1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese
- 1/4 cup sun-dried tomatoes not packed in oil
- 1/4 cup pitted kalamata olives chopped
- 1 tablespoon dill fresh, chopped
- 1 tablespoon parsley chopped
- 2 scallions chopped
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- salt to taste
- pepper fresh ground, to taste
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
- Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Using a sharp paring knife, cut a slit in the sides of the chicken breasts, forming a pocket. Be careful not to cut all the way through.
- Combine the feta, tomatoes, olives, dill, parsley, scallions and 1 tablespoon olive oil in a bowl. Stir until mixed well. Carefully stuff the chicken breasts with the feta mixture and seal the sides shut with water if necessary. Don’t overfill.
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the remaining olive oil and sear each chicken breast until browned. Transfer to a parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake for 12-15 minutes, until chicken is cooked through.
