SUN-DRIED TOMATO AND FETA-STUFFED CHICKEN BREASTS SBD

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 425.
• In a small bowl, combine cheese, tomatoes, garlic, and basil. Season with pepper and mash together well with a fork.
• Butterfly chicken by carefully slicing horizontally along the long edge of each breast, three-quarters of the way through. Open up each breast and spread inside with one-fourth of the feta mixture. Close breast over filling and press edges together to seal. Season lightly with salt and pepper.
• In a large ovenproof skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add chicken and cook until browned on both sides, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer skillet to oven and cook until chicken is cooked through, about 20 minutes. Remove from oven and serve warm.

SUN DRIED TOMATO FETA STUFFED CHICKEN

Steps:

• Lay chicken breast flat on the cutting board. Carefully, slide the knife (hold it sideways with blade facing away from you) at the top (wider part) of the chicken breast, in the center, and cut a pocket in the middle. DO NOT slice all the way through the bottom or the sides of the chicken breast. Your ultimate goal is to create a pocket inside the breast with opening at the top. Repeat with all three breasts.
• In a small bowl, mix minced sun dried tomatoes, Feta cheese, oil, parsley, salt and pepper. Mix well until evenly combined.
• Stuff each chicken breast with equal amount of tomato/feta mixture, making sure it is evenly distributed through the pocket. Lightly press each chicken breast.
• Rub each chicken with about a tablespoon of pesto.
• Preheat a large cooking pan on medium heat and add vegetable oil. Place stuffed chicken breasts in the pan.
• Cook over medium/ medium-low heat until done making sure that both sides get nice and golden (lots of flavor comes from the chicken cooked to golden brown). This could take 20-30 minutes, depending on thickness of the chicken.

SPINACH TOMATO FETA STUFFED CHICKEN BREAST

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
• Use a sharp knife to slice a pocket into the sides of each chicken breast. Make sure you don't cut all the way through, just enough to create a place for the spinach mixture to go.
• Season both sides of each chicken breast with 3/4 teaspoon salt, paprika and garlic powder. Set aside.
• In a medium bowl combine the sun dried tomatoes, spinach, feta cheese, shallots, garlic, basil, panko, oregano, parmesan cheese, salt and 1/2 tablespoon olive oil.
• Mix well and set aside.
• Divide spinach mixture between the chicken breasts and stuff into each, about 3/4 cup each. If needed, you can use toothpicks to close chicken breast.
• Heat a large, oven-safe or cast iron skillet over medium heat.
• Add the remaining oil and once hot, sear the chicken breasts on each side for about 2 to 3 minutes, until browned.
• Transfer skillet to oven and finish cooking 12 to 15 minutes, until chicken reaches 165 degrees F.
• Remove from oven and tent with foil for 5 minutes before eating.
• Remove toothpicks and eat right away.

CHICKEN BREAST STUFFED WITH FETA CHEESE, SUN-DRIED TOMATO

Steps:

• Sauté garlic and red bell pepper, in Olive Oil, for about 3 minutes (just enough to"combine" the flavors).
• Put aside to cool.
• In a bowl, combine Feta cheese, breadcrumbs, thyme, sun-dried tomatoes, and garlic and red pepper mixture.
• Toss until well mixed (this will be your "stuffing").
• Lay a flattened piece of chicken breast on a cutting board or your counter.
• Put a 1/4 of the above mixture on the flattened chicken breast like you would be making a burrito and roll as tight as you can get it.
• Secure it with a toothpick or butcher string.
• Place chicken breast "roll" on a baking sheet (I spray it with Pam so it doesn't stick), brush with olive oil (this gives it a nice golden brown texture), and season with salt and pepper.
• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• Cook for about 35 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 180°F.
• I guess you could try it on a grill, but I never attempted it yet!
• Garnish with chopped green onion and serve hot.
