Cheese Stuffed Chicken

By , About.com Guide

You can substitute blue cheese for the feta cheese if you'd like. You could also use any strong flavored cheese, such as sharp cheddar.

Prep Time: 20 minutes

Cook Time: 40 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
  • 3 Tbsp. chopped fresh parsley
  • 1/2 tsp. dried oregano leaves
  • 2 Tbsp. olive oil
  • 2 (14 oz.) cans diced tomatoes with roasted garlic, undrained
  • 1/4 cup sliced black olives
  • 1 Tbsp. cornstarch

Preparation:

Cut a 3" slit in the thick side of each chicken breast to form a pocket, being careful to not cut completely through the flesh. Combine cheese, parsley, oregano and oil and mix gently. Spoon 1/4 of filling into each pocket. Place chicken in ungreased 2 quart baking dish.

In another small bowl, mix tomatoes, olives and cornstarch and pour over chicken. Bake at 350 degrees for 35-40 minutes until chicken is thoroughly cooked. Serve with spaghetti, if you like. Serves 4
