Mediterranean Stuffed Chicken

Ingredients

• 2 large boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 1/2 cup feta cheese
• 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
• 1/4 cup chopped fresh basil
• 1/4 cup diced red onion
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

2. In a medium bowl, combine the feta cheese, parsley, basil, onion, garlic, salt, and pepper. Mix until combined.
3. Cut a slit in each chicken breast, making sure not to cut all the way through. Stuff each chicken breast with the feta cheese mixture, making sure to evenly distribute.
