This chicken is a variation of my child hood "Greek baked chicken" I used to make for my brother and I when we had "make your own dinner cause mom and dad are working" nights. This one leaves out the yogurt and honey for something a little lighter. It wasn't very colorful when it came out of the oven, so I threw some chopped red pepper on top. It would be equally as tasty with tomatoes, but as we know, the boy does not favor raw tomatoes. This he liked.
2 boneless skinless chicken breasts
1 lemon, cut in half
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
1/2 cup feta cheese
1/2 red pepper, diced
1) Preheat oven to 350. Arrange chicken in oven safe baking dish. Drizzle chicken with juice from half of the lemon.
2) Season chicken with salt and black pepper. Top with feta cheese. Drizzle with juice from remaining half of lemon.
3) Bake 35-40 minutes. Top chicken with red pepper
Serves 2.
