Greek Salsa Chicken

Wow, is all I can say.  This recipe was so easy to make & was wonderful.  I definitely will be making this again, soon.

Greek Salsa Chicken

 Salsa:

• 4oz crumbled feta cheese
• 1c halved grape or cherry tomatoes
• 1/4c pitted kalamata olives
• 1/4c minced fresh parsley
• 1/4c lemon juice
• 1/4c olive oil
• 1T freshly chopped oregano

Chicken:

• 6 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves (7oz each)
• pepper to taste
• 2T olive oil
• 2 lemons, cut into wedges

Directions:

Preheat oven to 450'

In a large bowl, combine feta, tomatoes, olives, parsley, lemon juice, 1/4c olive oil and oregano.  Cover & chill in refrigerator.

Heat 2T olive oil in a large roasting pan over medium-high heat.  Season chicken  with kosher salt & pepper.  Sear chicken, about 1-2 minutes each side; remove from heat.

Squeeze lemon wedges over the chicken to coat.  Place the squeezed lemon wedges around the chicken breasts.  Roast until chicken is cooked through, about 25-30mins.  Transfer chicken & lemons to a large platter.  Top with Salsa.

Note:  I served the salsa on the side so that those who didn't want to try it (aka the kids) wouldn't have to.
