Ingredients

3 tablespoons olive oil divided
1 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts sliced in half lengthwise
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
Salt and pepper
1 clove garlic minced
8 ounces grape tomatoes sliced in half
1/2 cup feta cheese crumbled
Fresh basil sliced

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350° F. Pour 2 tablespoons of olive oil into the bottom of an 9x13” baking dish. Set aside.
Season the chicken on both sides with Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper.
In a skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil over medium heat. When hot, add the chicken breasts and cook for 4 minutes on each side.
Transfer the chicken to the baking dish. Pour in the grape tomatoes and sprinkle on the feta cheese and basil. Place the baking dish in the oven for 20 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through to 165° F.
Remove the chicken from the pan and stir together the tomatoes and feta. Return the chicken to the pan and serve.

Notes

If you have a cast-iron skillet that’s large enough to fit the chicken, you can brown the chicken in it and cook in the oven in the skillet to save on dishes.
You can serve this on its own or over pasta or pasta alternatives.
