Number Of Ingredients 12

2 tablespoons all-purpose flour, divided
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon black pepper
¼ pound feta cheese, crumbled
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon dried oregano
6 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 ½ cups water
1 cube chicken bouillon, crumbled
2 cups loosely packed torn fresh spinach leaves
1 ripe tomato, chopped

Steps:

  • On large plate, combine 1 tablespoon flour, salt, and pepper. Set aside. In a small bowl, combine cheese, lemon juice, and oregano. Set aside.

This recipe was a disappointment. The chicken was dry and the marinade didn't have much flavor. I won't be making it again.

This recipe is easy to follow and the chicken turns out great. I like to serve it with a side of tzatziki sauce.
