Feta makes it Beta! Spinach and Feta Stuffed Chicken
23 May 2010
I think that I have said it before, but in case I haven't I L-O-V-E Feta. It is one of the best things in. the. world.
Technically I hadn't even tried it till my senior year in college, can you imagine? SAD! Which was only four years ago - WOW, it has been four years, thats strange, I can't believe how fast it has gone.
Anyway, I have been making up for my lack of a previous knowledge of Feta, by trying to eat it whenever possible. Enter the other day, when I had to make dinner. I had some bone-in, skin on (gasp- who do I think I am?) chicken breasts, frozen spinach and FETA! So I made dinner, and it was easy and SO delish!
Spinach and Feta Stuffed Chicken Breasts
Serves 5-6
Preheat oven to 450
1 bag of Frozen Spinach (10 oz)
1 clove garlic
1 cup Feta
5-6 Bone-in skin on chicken breasts
Steam the spinach with 1 crushed clove garlic, drain any excess liquid.
Add the Feta and mix till combined.
Gently make a pocket in the skin, stuff the filling under the skin, (divide evenly between the chicken).
Bake at 450 for 30 minutes to 1 hour or until internal temperature reaches 170.
I put mine on a rack so that the fat could drain into the pan.
I served mine with a small salad and Greek vinaigrette dressing.

Oh my goodness, does that sound amazing!!
Woah! That looks unreal! Would be perfect for an 'On the patio' dinner! Thanks for the recipe and directions!!
we do something super similar, but we pound out some boneless skinless breasts and then wrap the chicken around the spinach and feta. Super good, too! Sometimes if we wanna get fancy we cut them in to pinwheels and it looks all impressive and stuff! :)
Love it!
