Chicken with Tomatoes, Carmelized Onions and Feta


Another guest post from Alisa:
Chicken Breasts with Tomatoes, Caramelized Onions and Feta Cheese:
2 cloves of garlic, minced
2 tbsp olive oil, divided
2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 cup of red grape tomatoes
Sea salt and fresh cracked pepper
Garlic powder, to taste
2 tbsp fresh basil, chopped
2-3 tbsp of feta cheese
Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add onions and a bit of salt then saute until golden brown and caramelized. In large grill pan, heat the other tablespoon of olive oil over medium high heat and season the chicken breasts with sea salt, freshly cracked pepper, and garlic powder, to taste. Cook for about 5-6 minutes on each side. Remove from heat. Slice into thin strips at an angle once it has rested. In the same skillet as the onions, add the grape tomatoes then season with sea salt and freshly cracked pepper, to taste. Cook for 3-4 minutes until the tomatoes are soft. Add minced garlic, stirring frequently for 60 seconds. Pour the tomatoes and onions on top of the sliced chicken, drizzle with balsamic vinegar. Top with feta cheese and fresh basil. Enjoy!

I halved the recipe and instead of putting the balsamic, feta & basil on top, I used some of the leftovers I had from the stuffed chicken filling (Red pepper, olive, feta & basil) and put that on top with the onions & tomatoes.
