Steps:

- Spread the garlic on both sides; insert some garlic into the slits you made. Season the chicken breasts on both sides with salt, pepper and 1/2 of the dried oregano.
- In a large cast iron skillet, heat 2 tbsp of olive oil on medium-high. Brown the chicken on both sides. Add the white wine and let reduce by 1/2 then add the lemon juice and chicken broth. Sprinkle the remaining oregano on top. Reduce the heat to medium. Cover with a lid or tightly with foil. Cook for 10-15 mins turning the chicken over once (chicken's internal temperature should reach 165 degrees F.)
- Uncover and top with the chopped onions, tomatoes and olives. Cover again and cook for only 3 minutes. Finally add the parsley and feta cheese. Serve with a light pasta, rice or couscous. Enjoy

MEDITERRANEAN LEMON CHICKEN
A quick and easy saute with the flavors of the Mediterranean in a light sauce. I like this served over basmati rice: the fragrant rice compliments the lemon and oregano and makes a nice meal. And the rice cooks in the time it takes to make this entree, so everything is ready at the same time. A note on the use of arrowroot instead of cornstarch: Arrowroot is a good thickener for an acidic liquid (Cornstarch loses potency in acids.) It is also a good choice if your sauce is mildly flavored. When you're looking for a high-gloss finish, use arrowroot.

Steps:
- Saute the chicken pieces in the butter and olive oil until golden.
- Add minced garlic and shallots.
- Add 1 cup chicken broth, oregano, lemon juice, lemon zest and garlic pepper.
- Stir, and as liquid is reduced, ballast with additional broth to prevent drying out. You may use the whole can--you should keep a good balance of liquid to the chicken pieces to form a sauce.
- Add arrowroot to a bit (about one tablespoon) of the broth, mix until dissolved and stir into the saute.
- Continue stirring until the sauce thickens and a glaze is formed.
- Remove from the stove and serve over basmati rice.

The recipe is from a cookbook about Mediterranean food. Versions of this recipe could be found in Spain, Italy and France, and of course in Dalmatia. I made it several times already and every time was perfect, so I decided to share it with you.

Steps:
- Put the stock into the pan and bring to the boil. Add the garlic cloves, cover and simmer gently for 40 minutes.
- Heat the butter and oil in a sauté or frying pan, add the chicken thighs (you can cut them in halves) and cook them gently on all sides until golden. Transfer them to an ovenproof dish.
- Preheat oven to 190°/375°/gas 5.
- Strain the stock and reserve it. Distribute the garlic and lemon slices among the chicken pieces.
- Add the flour to the fat in the pan in which the chicken was browned and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Add the wine, stirring constantly and scarping the bottom of the pan, than add the stock. Cook stirring until the sauce has thickened and is smooth. Season it with salt and pepper.
- Pour the sauce over the chicken, add dried basil, cover and cook in the oven for 40-45 minutes. If a thicker sauce is required, lift out the chicken pieces and reduce the sauce by boiling rapidly until it reaches desired consistency.
- Scatter over the chopped parsley (or fresh basil) and serve with boiled new potatoes or rice.
