  • Author: Chef Ethan Sam
  • Total Time: 45 minutes

Ingredients

– 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
– 1/4 cup olive oil
– 3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
– 3 cloves garlic, minced
– 1 teaspoon dried oregano
– 1 teaspoon dried thyme
– 1 teaspoon salt
– 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
– 1 cup crumbled feta cheese
– 1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped
– Lemon wedges, for serving


Instructions

Creating Greek Chicken with Lemon and Feta is straightforward if you follow these simple steps:

1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Prepare Marinade: In a bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, oregano, thyme, salt, and black pepper.
3. Marinate Chicken: Place the chicken breasts in a baking dish and pour the marinade over them, ensuring they are well-coated. Let it marinate for at least 15 minutes (or up to 2 hours in the fridge for more flavor).
4. Bake Chicken: Bake the marinated chicken in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C) and the chicken is cooked through.
5. Add Feta: During the last 5 minutes of cooking, sprinkle the crumbled feta cheese over the chicken and return to the oven until the cheese is slightly melted.
6. Garnish: Once done, remove the chicken from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes. Garnish with chopped parsley and serve with lemon wedges.
7. Serve: Enjoy your Greek Chicken with a side of rice, salad, or your favorite bread.

These steps will guide you in creating this delightful dish effortlessly.
