I adapted this from a recipe I saw in Cooking Light magazine, making changes to suit my family's taste preferences.

Categories     Chicken Breast

Time 45m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 red bell pepper
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/4 cup feta cheese, crumbled (1 ounce)
2 tablespoons kalamata olives, finely chopped
1 1/2 tablespoons fresh basil, minced
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
8 boneless skinless chicken breasts (6 ounces each)
salt and pepper, to taste
dried basil, to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat broiler.
  • Cut bell pepper in half lengthwise and remove seeds and membranes. Place pepper halves on foil-lined baking sheet, skin side up. Broil 15 minutes or until blackened. Place in air-tight container for 15 minutes. After 15 minutes, finely chop the 2 bell pepper halves.
  • Mix together chopped bell pepper, garlic, cheese, olives, basil, salt, and pepper in a bowl.
  • Cut a horizontal slit in thickest portions of each chicken breast to form a pocket (but do not cut all the way through). Spoon the pepper/feta/olive mixture into each pocket. Close the opening with a toothpick. Season chicken on both sides with salt and pepper, and sprinkle the top side with dried basil.
  • Place chicken on broiler rack, and broil 6-8 minutes each side, or until done (it may take additional time, depending on thickness of the chicken breasts). Remove from oven, loosely wrap with foil and let stand 10 minutes before serving.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover chicken. I made it with some roasted chicken that I had in the fridge and it turned out great! The stuffing was flavorful and the chicken was moist and tender.

I made this recipe with some modifications. I used boneless, skinless chicken breasts and I omitted the olives. The chicken came out perfectly cooked and the stuffing was delicious. I would definitely make this again.

This recipe was a disaster! The chicken was dry and overcooked, and the stuffing was bland and tasteless. I would not recommend this recipe to anyone.

I followed the recipe exactly and the chicken came out dry and overcooked. The stuffing was also bland and lacked flavor.
