Steps:
- Pound the breasts flat to app. 1/2 thickness. Lightly salt and pepper each size. Place on hot grill for about 3 minutes per side or until thoroughly cooked through. The topping: Drain the tomatoes and reserve the oil. Add tomatoes garlic and salt to a food processor and pulse until combined into a paste. Add 1 - 2 tbsp of reserved oil until the mixture forms a thick paste like texture. Remove mixture into a medium size bowl. Gently fold Feta cheese and basil until well combined. Spread a generous coat on the grilled breast and serve. Alternately you can place the topped chicken in a warmed oven (300 degrees)for a few minutes to heat up and melt the topping slightly. Other herbs can be substituted as well. I have tried both cilantro and rosemary with great results!

Plus, I'm showing you how to make my new favorite thing to eat, which is whipped feta. Serve with grilled red onion and red bell pepper if you like, and garnish with Greek olives.

Tips:
- For the best grilled chicken flavor, use a marinade or flavorful rub. Try experimenting with different herbs, spices, and citrus fruits to create a unique taste.
- To achieve even cooking, ensure that the chicken breasts are of uniform thickness. If they are not, pound them to an even thickness using a meat mallet.
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat before adding the chicken. This will help to create a nice sear on the outside of the chicken while keeping the inside juicy.
- Cook the chicken over medium-high heat for 8-10 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). Use a meat thermometer to ensure that the chicken is cooked to a safe temperature.
- Let the chicken rest for a few minutes before slicing and serving. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the chicken, resulting in a more tender and flavorful bite.
Conclusion:
Grilled chicken is a versatile dish that can be enjoyed in a variety of ways. With the right marinade, rub, and cooking method, you can create a delicious and flavorful meal that is sure to please everyone at your table. Whether you serve it with a simple side salad, roasted vegetables, or a flavorful sauce, grilled chicken is a healthy and satisfying option that is perfect for any occasion.
