This is a few different recipes thrown together. I had a bunch of feta cheese that needed to be used and we really wanted a chicken dinner. This is what we up with.

Ingredients

5 serv.
  • boneless skinless chicken breasts5 -6
  • cup feta cheese1
  • a diced tomato1⁄2
  • tablespoons diced onions2
  • garlic cloves2
  • jalapeno pepper (optional)1⁄2
  • teaspoon oregano1
  • teaspoon basil1⁄2
  • salt and pepper
  • cup pesto sauce3⁄4

Step-by-step instructions

  1. 1

    Pre-heat oven to 350.

  2. 2

    In a bowl, combine feta, tomato, onion, garlic, jalapeno, oregano, basil salt and pepper. Set aside.

  3. 3

    Using a sharp knife, cut into the fatest part of each breast and create a pocket. Be careful not to cut straight through.

  4. 4

    Put the pesto in a large ziplock bag and place the chicken in with it. Mix it around until the chicken is thoroughly coated.

  5. 5

    Place the coated chicken in a greased glass pan.

  6. 6

    Stuff the feta mix into the pockets of each chicken breast.

  7. 7

    Arrange the chicken so the openings of the pockets are on an angle (facing upward) so once they start baking the mix doesn't ooze out.

  8. 8

    Cook for 45 minutes.
