I'm not a big fan of chicken breast, but this recipe changed my mind. The feta and pesto stuffing was so flavorful that it made the chicken taste amazing.

This recipe is perfect for meal prep. I made a big batch of the chicken on the weekend and then reheated it throughout the week for lunch.

I'm allergic to nuts, so I substituted the pesto with a sun-dried tomato pesto. It was delicious!

This recipe is way too complicated. I ended up giving up and ordering takeout.

I found this recipe to be a bit bland. I added some extra garlic and herbs to the stuffing and it was much better.

I followed the recipe exactly and the chicken was dry and overcooked. I'm not sure what went wrong.

I love that this recipe is so versatile. You can use different types of cheese and pesto, and you can even add other ingredients to the stuffing, like sun-dried tomatoes or artichoke hearts.

This dish is a great way to use up leftover chicken. I had some leftover roasted chicken and it worked perfectly in this recipe.

This feta and pesto stuffed chicken breast was a hit with my family! The chicken was juicy and flavorful, and the stuffing was a perfect blend of salty, tangy, and herbaceous. I will definitely be making this again.
