Steps:

• On large plate, combine 1 tablespoon flour, salt, and pepper. Set aside. In a small bowl, combine cheese, lemon juice, and oregano. Set aside.
• With a meat mallet, pound each chicken breast to 1/2 inch thickness. Spread cheese mixture on each chicken breast, leaving 1/2 inch border. Fold chicken breasts in half; secure each with toothpick. Coat chicken breasts with flour mixture.
• In large skillet, heat oil over medium heat. Cook chicken breasts for 1 to 2 minutes on each side, until golden. In a small bowl, whisk together 1 1/2 cups water, chicken bouillon cube, and remaining flour; pour over chicken breasts in pan. Add spinach and tomato to skillet, and bring to boil. Cover, reduce heat to low, and simmer for 8 to 10 minutes, or until chicken is no longer pink inside. Discard toothpicks before serving.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees. In a large skillet heat oil over high. Add onion and garlic and saute until onion is translucent, about 5 minutes. Add tomatoes and cook until tomatoes break down, 5 to 10 minutes.
• Season chicken with salt and add to skillet. Transfer to oven. Bake until chicken is cooked through, about 17 minutes. Heat broiler. Sprinkle feta over chicken and broil until feta is softened and browned in spots, 2 minutes. Sprinkle with dill for serving.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine the first 5 ingredients. Transfer to a 13x9-in. baking dish coated with cooking spray., Cover and bake at 400° for 40 minutes. Sprinkle with cheese. Bake, uncovered, 10-15 minutes longer or until chicken juices run clear and potatoes are tender.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.
• Place chicken breasts between 2 pieces of waxed paper. Gently pound chicken with flat side of meat mallet or rolling pin until about 1/4 inch thick; remove wax paper. Place 1 ounce of feta cheese in the center of each chicken breast, and fold in half.
• Spread 2 tablespoons bread crumbs in the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Arrange chicken in the dish, and top with remaining bread crumbs.
• Bake 25 to 30 minutes in the preheated oven, or until chicken is no longer pink and juices run clear.

Steps:

• Rinse the chicken breasts under cool water, pat dry and place in a shallow glass baking dish.
• Stir the lemon zest, juice, wine, oregano, salt and pepper together and pour over the chicken, rubbing it into all sides.
• Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for several hours or overnight. Bring to room temperature before cooking.
• Heat olive oil and butter in a large skillet, until butter melts and is sizzling. Remove the chicken breasts from the marinade, RESERVING the marinade to make the sauce. Brown the chicken in the hot skillet, turning only once, about 4 to 5 minutes per side, until lightly browned on both sides. Transfer to a platter, loosely cover and keep warm while you prepare the sauce.
• Add the onion and tomato to the pan you cooked the chicken in.Reduce the heat and cook, stirring frequently, 2 to 3 minutes, until the onion is soft and translucent and the tomatoes soften and release liquid. Add the garlic and saute for 1 minute, stirring constantly. Add the reserved marinade and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 2 to 3 minutes until the liquid has reduced by half. Season with additional salt and pepper if desired.
• Return the chicken to the skillet with the sauce. Add the olives and basil and simmer on low for 5 to 8 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and feels firm to the touch.
• Transfer to a hot platter or individual plates. Spoon sauce over each breast and scatter with the feta cubes. Garnish with additional fresh basil and oregano leaves. Serve warm.

Steps:

• Heat oil in a heavy large skillet over medium-high heat (I use my electric skillet for this).
• Add in onions or shallots, garlic (if using) red pepper flakes (if using) oregano and basil; saute for about 5 minutes.
• Season the chicken with salt and pepper, then add in the chicken, skin side down to the skillet; brown to 5 minutes.
• Turn the chicken over with tongs and add in the crushed tomatoes and wine (or broth if using) bring to a simmer; cover the skillet.
• Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until the chicken is cooked through (about 25 minutes).
• Transfer the chicken to a plate.
• Boil the sauce over high heat for about 5 minutes to thicken.
• Mix in cheese and olives and simmer until heated through (about 5-6 minutes).
• Serve with hot cooked noodles.

Steps:

• Heat oil in heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Add shallots and oregano and sauté until shallots are tender, about 5 minutes. Season chicken with salt and pepper. Add chicken, skin side down, to skillet and sauté until skin browns, about 5 minutes. Using tongs, turn chicken over. Add tomatoes and broth and bring to boil. Cover skillet. Reduce heat to medium-low. Simmer until chicken is just cooked through, about 10 minutes. Transfer chicken to plate. Boil sauce over high heat until thickened, about 5 minutes. Mix in cheese and simmer until heated through, about 5 minutes.

Steps:

• Pat chicken thighs dry with paper towels; season all over with salt. Arrange skin side down in a cold large cast-iron skillet. Set over medium heat and cook chicken, undisturbed, rotating pan as needed for even browning, until skin is very deep golden brown and crisp and chicken releases easily from pan, 13-16 minutes. Using tongs, transfer chicken to a plate, arranging skin side up.
• Combine tomatoes, harissa paste, vinegar, 1 oregano sprig, and ½ tsp. salt in same skillet. Increase heat to medium-high and cook, stirring occasionally, until tomatoes burst and their juices start to thicken, 8-10 minutes.
• Nestle chicken thighs into tomatoes, skin side up. Reduce heat to medium-low, bring to a simmer, and cook until chicken is just cooked through and flesh is no longer pink (an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part near the bone will register 165°F), and tomato sauce is thickened so that a wooden spoon dragged through it leaves a trail, 6-8 minutes. Remove from heat and let sit 5 minutes.
• Break feta into large pieces; scatter over chicken. Some pieces will stay intact while others will soften into the sauce a little-and that's exactly what you want. Pick leaves off remaining 2 oregano sprigs and scatter on top.
• Serve with bread for sopping up any extra tomato sauce.

Steps:

• Heat oil in large skillet on medium-high heat. Add chicken and onions; cover. Cook 10 to 14 min. or until chicken is done (165ºF), turning after 6 min. Remove chicken from skillet; cover to keep warm.
