ATHENIAN CHICKEN: INSPIRED BY THE FLAVORS OF GREECE

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• Preheat oven to 375 F.
• Pound chicken breasts flat*-they should uniformly be about 3/8-inch thick.
• Combine 3 tablespoons of minced herbs with garlic and 1/3 of the cheese.
• Lay out breasts with what was the skin-side down, lightly season breasts with salt and pepper then spread half of cheese/herb mixture on each breast, roll up, and either tie with twine or pin with toothpicks.
• Heat oil in a medium cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat, then, treating the breasts as though they're 3-sided, brown on 2 sides-about 3 minutes per side. Turn unbrowned side down and place skillet in the oven on the middle rack and cook for another 6 to 8 minutes.
• Remove skillet from oven and place breasts on a plate and tent with foil.
• Being very careful of the hot handle, add wine to the cast-iron skillet over medium heat and scrape up browned bits. Reducing wine by about half.
• Add half and half and bring to a simmer. Add remaining herbs (reserving a couple of pinches for a final garnish), feta, white pepper to taste, and lemon juice. Cook for about 30 seconds.
• Plate chicken breasts, removing twine or toothpicks, pour the sauce over them and sprinkle with a final pinch of herbs. (For a colorful and nutrient-rich meal, you might want to serve this with roasted cherry tomatoes, microgreens, fresh peas, and either orzo , couscous or rice.)
• Serve and enjoy.

• 1. Microwave couscous and water for 2 minutes in an ungreased 13 x 9 x 2" glass pan. (Microwave strentghs may vary. The cooked couscous should just absorb the water yet not look dried out.) 2. Remove from oven. Arrange spinach in pan, on top of couscous. Press leaves down slightly to keep them in the pan. 3. Crumble 1 cup feta over spinach. Arrange chicken breasts evenly on top of cheese. 4. Pour evenly over chicken: contents of tomato can, including juices. 5. Evenly distribute cooked zuchinni slices on top. Shake basil lightly over entire dish. Add garlic and remaining feta cheese. 6. Cover with foil and bake one hour in preheated 350 degree oven. 7. Uncover, spray lightly with canola oil. Turn heat up to 400 degrees and cook, uncovered for about ten more minutes (until slightly golden brown on top). Do not overcook! Should be nice and juicy, with chicken and tomato broth soaking down into the couscous. 8. Serve hot! Use wide spatula or large serving spoon to deliver layered helpings of chicken, couscous and vegetables.
