What's Cookin'?

Feta and Sundried Tomato-stuffed Chicken Breast... mmmm....
Best thing about this was I could just throw it together without a recipe. Muy bueno. 


Must-haves:

• skinless, boneless chicken breasts
• feta cheese
• sundried tomatoes
• garlic
• sturdy frying pan

Can-haves:

• whatever herbs tickle your fancy
• spinach

Yeah, I cheated and used tomato and basil feta-- I feel so semi-homemade right now, and that is NOT a good thing. She's creepy. 

My happy little pile of garlic back there is about to make everything better... and pungent. 

Can't survive without a kitchen scale-- invest in one if you haven't already... less than $20 but pretty much priceless!

The completed filling. All I need's a bird to stuff this in!

Poor chicken breast was pounded to a pulp by a frying pan (and I may or may not have cracked the pan handle in the process)-- I was getting out frustration toward Mother Nature for screwing us out of a snow day tomorrow. She's such a tease. 

Give the chickies a good sear then pop them in the oven for about 20 minutes on 375ºF.

Couldn't get as yummy a photo as I would have liked, but these turned out prrretty awesome if I do say so myself. 

Feta and sundried tomato-stuffed chicken breast - ☆☆☆½

♡ Lean protein is always a plus

♡ Feta is a magical cheese that's only 70-90 cals per ounce (even less for reduced fat versions!)

♡ Super quick meal

♡ Easy way to spice up boneless chicken breasts

♡ Leftovers are easy to reheat

♡ The dog will hang with you in the kitchen ever-so-hopeful for scraps (my favorite part!)

You can Google this dish and find scads of recipes, but I think it's a great one to experiment with. Let me know if this makes its way into your dinner rotation-- bon appétit!
