Grilled Greek :)
ingredients
1/2 cup (125 mL) crumbled feta cheese
1/4 cup (50 mL) chopped roasted red pepper
2 green onions, thinly sliced
4 large skinless, boneless chicken breasts
1 tsp (5 mL) each dried oregano leaves and garlic salt
1 lemon (optional)
directions
Oil grill and heat barbecue to medium. Mash cheese with roasted pepper in a bowl. (if you're using the whole ingredients you can use a processor) Stir in onions. Working with 1 breast at a time, form a pocket in thickest side by making a horizontal cut about 2 1/2 in. (6 cm) long and 1 1/2 in. (3.5 cm) deep.
Gently open and stuff in cheese mixture, pushing as close to center of breast as possible. Wet inside edges of opening and press down to seal. If you have toothpicks, insert through edge opening to hold together.
Lightly oil outside of chicken and generously sprinkle with seasonings. Place chicken on grill. Barbecue, with lid closed, until chicken is cooked through and feels springy, 8 to 10 min per side. Squeeze lemon juice on top before serving.
