Ingredients

4 Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1/2 cup Feta cheese, crumbled
1/4 cup Chopped fresh parsley
1/2 tsp. Dried oregano leaves
2 tbsp. Olive oil
1 28-oz. Can Italian style diced tomatoes, undrained
1/4 cup Sliced ripe olives
4 tsp. Cornstarch

Preparation

Cut a 3" slit in the thick side of each chicken breast to form a pocket, being careful to not cut completely through the flesh. Combine cheese, parsley, oregano and oil and mix gently. Spoon 1/4 of filling into each pocket. Place chicken in ungreased 2 quart baking dish.

In another small bowl, mix tomatoes, olives and cornstarch and pour over chicken. Bake at 350 degrees for 35-40 minutes until chicken is thoroughly cooked. Serve with spaghetti, if you like.

This was OK, I followed the recipe to a T; but it was very dull. The chick needs to be seasoned on its own. Also the tomato's were a nice topping, but strait out of the can they just taste boring.
