39 Reviews of Fantastic Feta Chicken

by Lorac

From: jellyko

I really was excited to try this as I love all the ingredients and easy to prepare but the flavor for me was really lacking....Maybe if chicken was marinaded in a greek or italian dressing it would have been more flavorful rather than tasting almost poached like. I know there are a lot of good reviews for this and I LOVE lorac so I hope I don't hinder anyone from trying and maybe someone can try and advise more options to making this a better recipe. I almost wasn't going to review however it is good to get real feedback which only improves original recipes and the website. Thanks though!

    This recipe was delicious. I scaled the recipe down to 3 servings. I sliced a vidalia onion and placed the slices in the botton of the baking dish, to keep the chicken from sitting in the juices. I then salted and peppered both sides of the breasts before placing them on top of the onion. I chopped up some garlic chives from my garden as well as 2 sprigs of fresh oregano. I juiced a whole lemon for the drizzling. I also chopped up some dry-packed sun-dried tomatoes and put them on just before the feta. This was so yummy, and quick for a week night meal. I'm sure to make this again. Thanks for posting!

    Excellent, EASY meal! I used more feta because we love it, took Len22's advice and added a couple of cloves of minced garlic, and threw some fresh snipped chives on top to serve. This one definitely gets added into the \

    Fantastic is right! This was so flavorful! I took the advice of other reviewers and marinated the chicken. I created my own greek marinade with olive oil, lemon juice, oregano, garlic and pepper. I also set the chicken ontop of thick onion slices so it wouldn't sit in it's juices as another reviewer suggested. I'm glad I did there was a lot of liquid in the bottom. I topped the chicken with sliced garlic, feta and then more lemon juice. I served with greek roasted potatoes #87782. Thanks for such a fantastic keeper!!!

    I love the lemon Oregano Feta combibation and it looks so attractive too. I used fresh Greek oregano, skinless boneless thighs and cut the recipe back to 6 thighs - no problem Thanks Lorac for posting this recipe

    We LOVED this. We had some precooked bacon and some sliced mushrooms that needed to be used, so we improvised this recipe a bit (see photo) but it was SO SO SO good. The lemon juice was just perfect (I will admit I was like "feta and lemon"????) Divine!

    I really love this recipe, I've made it several times. The first few times I baked it and it was really dry. The last time I made it, I sauteed the chicken in 1 tbsp olive oil on the stove top. I seasoned well with paprika, salt & pepper. I added the lemon juice at the very end and a small amount of chicken stock, maybe a few tablespoons. Then I removed the pan to the oven and baked for about 10 minutes at 375, added the feta - I used the sun dried tomato and oregano feta - and baked for approximately 10 more minutes. I'm going to try to figure out a way to incorporate mushrooms or artichokes, maybe tomatoes. Really good recipe that you can play with a bit. Definitely a keeper, thanks for posting.

    This was great! My husband suggested that it would be perfect to add on top of a caesar salad. We really liked it!

    Very yummy, the feta and the lemon are an excellent mix. I went a little overboard with the oregano and it still turned out well. I also added a clove of garlic because we love it, and it was great! Will definitely do again, it was a good way to use up some extra feta.
