Categories     Chicken Breast

Time 45m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 red bell pepper
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/4 cup feta cheese, crumbled (1 ounce)
2 tablespoons kalamata olives, finely chopped
1 1/2 tablespoons fresh basil, minced
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
8 boneless skinless chicken breasts (6 ounces each)
salt and pepper, to taste
dried basil, to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat broiler.
  • Cut bell pepper in half lengthwise and remove seeds and membranes. Place pepper halves on foil-lined baking sheet, skin side up. Broil 15 minutes or until blackened. Place in air-tight container for 15 minutes. After 15 minutes, finely chop the 2 bell pepper halves.

Close the opening with a toothpick. Season chicken on both sides with salt and pepper, and sprinkle the top side with dried basil.
