An easy and satisfying dish—chicken filled with savory spices and tangy feta cheese. Serve with couscous.

Directions

  • In the side of each chicken breast, make a slit. Stuff one quarter of feta cheese into each pocket.
  • In a large, non-stick skillet over high heat warm the olive oil. Add chicken; sauté on each side until nicely browned and cooked throughout, about 5 to 8 minutes per side. Remove chicken from heat and set aside.
  • Reduce heat to medium. In the same skillet, add ginger, cumin, coriander, and cayenne pepper. Sauté for 1 minute. Stir in tomatoes; cook until they become sauce-like, about 6 minutes. Stir in parsley, mint, sugar, and salt.
