Feta Chicken

This Feta Chicken recipe brings Mediterranean flavor to your table with minimal effort. Tender chicken breasts are baked with juicy cherry tomatoes, garlic, herbs, and crumbled feta cheese, creating a rich and tangy sauce as it cooks. It’s fresh, healthy, and great served over rice, quinoa, or with a side of roasted vegetables. Simple enough for a weeknight, yet elegant enough for guests.
