Chicken with Olive and Feta Cheese

 

 

Ingredients

 

4 chicken breasts 160g per portion

skinless and boneless 

100g prunes 

70g pitted olives 

70g feta 

2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil 

1 lemon 

For the seasoning:

1 tbsp salt 

1 tbsp onion powder 

1 tbsp garlic powder 

1 tbsp nigella seeds 

 

 

Here’s how 

 

​

Chop the prunes into chunks, then dice the feta cheese and place in a bowl with the pitted olives.

Chop the fresh oregano slowly and add to the bowl, followed by the zest of a lemon. 

Mix together with a drizzle of olive oil. 

Cut a pocket into the chicken breasts horizontally and stuff with the mixture. 

Mix the seasoning together and sprinkle over the top of the chicken, any seasoning left over place into a clean jam jar and keep for another day. 

Pour a little oil over the chicken before cooking in a preheated pan for 5 minutes, then finish under a grill for 8-10 minutes. 

Finish with a squeeze of lemon and a final sprinkle of oregano.

I like to serve this recipe up with a dressed green salad and lots of crusty warm baguette.
