Chicken Breasts Stuffed With Feta Sun Dried Tomatoes Recipes

Steps:

• For the couscous: In saucepan over medium heat add olive oil, when hot, add the garlic and red pepper flakes. Add the sun-dried tomatoes and saute a few minutes more. Add olives and chicken stock and bring to a boil. Add the box of couscous, turn off heat and let stand covered for 5 minutes. Fluff with fork, and season with salt and pepper. Spread 2 cups on large plate, add in 1/2 pound feta, and let cool. Keep the remaining hot to serve with chicken. (Put in covered casserole and reheat in oven last 10 minutes with chicken.)
• For the chicken: Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
• Trim chicken with a boning knife, if needed. Start at top of breast and carefully make a lengthwise cut from top to bottom and making a pocket about 2 inches, making sure not to pierce the other side of the breast. When couscous is cool enough to handle, carefully spoon couscous mixture into pocket. Even out the stuffing by gently moving it around with your hands. Wipe off any excess couscous from outside of breasts and season with salt and pepper.
• Heat olive oil and butter in saute pan and brown off both sides of chicken. Place chicken on baking sheet and place in oven for 20 minutes.
• While chicken is baking, make the sauce.
• For the sauce: In saute pan that you cooked chicken breasts in, heat and add garlic. Deglaze with white wine and add lemon juice. Reduce by one third. Add in sun-dried tomatoes, let reduce for 2 to 3 minutes, add the olives, turn off heat, add the butter and stir to combine.
• To serve, place couscous from oven on plate, cut chicken breast in half, top with sauce, crumble remaining feta cheese over.

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 400°F, Gas Mark 6 (200°C.)
• Dice the mozzarella and sun-dried tomatoes into small pieces and tear the basil leaves.
• Season the chicken breasts with salt, pepper and dried oregano.
• Cut a very deep slit lengthways into the chicken, but do not cut all the way through - spread it out a bit if necessary to give you more room to work with.
• Stuff to the brim with the fillings
• Use a few cocktail sticks to hold the chicken together and place on a baking tray.
• Pour a tablespoon of the oil from the sun-dried tomatoes jar over each chicken breast.
• Bake in the center of the oven for 20-25 minutes until cooked through and the juices run clear.
• Remove the cocktail sticks.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°. In a small bowl, mix cheese and tomatoes. Pound chicken breasts with a meat mallet to 1/4-in. thickness. Brush with 1 tablespoon oil; sprinkle with Greek seasoning. Top with cheese mixture. Roll up chicken from a short side; secure with a toothpick., Place in a greased 11x7-in. baking dish, seam side down; brush with remaining oil. Bake, uncovered, 30-35 minutes or until until a thermometer reads 165°. Discard toothpicks before serving.

Steps:

• Soak sun-dried tomatoes in enough boiling water to just cover them.
• Set aside.
• Heat oil in nonstick skillet over medium high.
• Add onion and cook, stirring, for 3 to 4 minutes, or until softened.
• Remove skillet from heat and transfer onions to small bowl.
• Drain tomatoes, discarding the soaking liquid or reserving it for another use.
• Add chopped tomatoes to onions and stir in basil and feta.
• Cut a horizontal slit in each chicken breast to form a pocket.
• Stuff each with 1/4 of cheese mixture.
• Return skillet to medium-high heat.
• Add the chicken breasts and saute for 6 minutes.
• Carefully turn them and cook another 6 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through.

Steps:

• Sauté garlic and red bell pepper, in Olive Oil, for about 3 minutes (just enough to"combine" the flavors).
• Put aside to cool.
• In a bowl, combine Feta cheese, breadcrumbs, thyme, sun-dried tomatoes, and garlic and red pepper mixture.
• Toss until well mixed (this will be your "stuffing").
• Lay a flattened piece of chicken breast on a cutting board or your counter.
• Put a 1/4 of the above mixture on the flattened chicken breast like you would be making a burrito and roll as tight as you can get it.
• Secure it with a toothpick or butcher string.
• Place chicken breast "roll" on a baking sheet (I spray it with Pam so it doesn't stick), brush with olive oil (this gives it a nice golden brown texture), and season with salt and pepper.
• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• Cook for about 35 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 180°F.
• I guess you could try it on a grill, but I never attempted it yet!
• Garnish with chopped green onion and serve hot.

Steps:

• Preheat a grill to medium. Prepare the chicken: With your knife parallel to the cutting board, slice each chicken breast in half horizontally without cutting all the way through; open like a book. Cover with plastic wrap and pound until 1/2 inch thick.
• Make the garlic-tomato oil: Mix the sun-dried tomato oil and garlic in a bowl; season with salt and pepper.
• Season the pounded chicken on both sides with salt and pepper and brush with half of the garlic-tomato oil; top with the zucchini, chopped sun-dried tomatoes, mozzarella and basil, leaving a 1-inch border around the edges. Roll up the chicken toward the pointy end; tie with 3 pieces of kitchen twine. Brush with the remaining garlic-tomato oil.
• Brush the grill grates with vegetable oil. Grill the chicken breasts, turning, until cooked through, 18 to 20 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board and let rest 5 minutes, then remove the twine and slice.

Steps:

• Pre-Heat oven to 180 degrees Celsius.
• Slice breasts and open out, using a meat mallet pound breasts, until of approximate even thickness.
• Spread pesto down center of each breast, place sliced sun-dried tomato down the center, top with feta, roll chicken breasts up and secure with prosciutto slices.
• Place breasts in an oven proof dish, drizzle olive oil over breasts and bake for about 30-35 Min's or until cooked through.

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven to 425F. 2. Bring 2 cups water to a boil in a small saucepan; add tomatoes. Remove from heat; cover and let stand for 5 minutes. Drain and slice into thin strips. Combine tomatoes, cheese, 2 teaspoon chopped basil, oregano, garlic, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a small bowl. 3. Place chicken breast halves between 2 sheets of heavy-duty plastic wrap, and pound each piece to an even thickness using a meat mallet or small heavy skillet. Cut a horizontal slit through one side of each chicken breast half to form a deep pocket. stuff 1/4 cup tomato mixture into each pocket. Sprinkle both sides of chicken with salt and remaining 1/2 teaspoon pepper. 4. Fold 4 (16x12 inch) sheets of heavy-duty aluminum foil in half crosswise. Open foil; place 1 1/2 teaspoon butter on half of each foil sheet. Lay one stuffed chicken breast half on top of each portion of butter. Place 1/8 teaspoon grated lemon rind on top of each stuffed chicken breast half, and drizzle each serving with 1 tablespoon chicken broth. Fold foil over chicken, and tightly seal edges. Place packets on a baking sheet. Bake packets at 425F for 20 minutes. Remove from oven and let stand for 5 minutes. Unfold packets carefully, and thinly slice each chicken breast half. Garnish each serving with 1/2 teaspoon sliced basil. Serve immediately.
