INGREDIENTS:
8 tbs olive oil
2 tsp lemon juice
4 cloves crushed garlic
1 tbs dried oregano
salt and pepper to taste
4 skinless, boneless chicken breasts
crumbled feta (one container)
4 slices of bacon, fried and drained
INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Preheat the oven to 350.
2. Combine the oil, lemon juice, garlic, oregano, salt and pepper.
3. Place chicken in a 9 x 13 inch baking dish and pour oil mixture over chicken.
4. Stuff each chicken breast with feta and one slice of bacon. Secure open sides with toothpicks.
**There are two ways to do this. I typically use thin chicken and fold it in half. If you have thicker chicken and skill, you can cut slits in the actual chicken. I tend to be able to get more feta and bacon in every bite with it folded!
5. Bake uncovered for 30-35 minutes.
I am making mashed potatoes, green beans, and rolls to go with this tonight! (hence the money saver potatoes and green beans) Have a great Valentine's Day! :-*
