Do you like to stuff things? I do. I love to stuff chicken. You’re basically taking a bland piece of protein and transforming it into a plate of whatever-the-hell makes you happy. I’ve always been in love with Greek flavors. Olives and feta cheese are probably two of my favorite things. Pair those with balsamic mushrooms and onions, and you’ve got one amazing chicken dish. And, yes, I served this over grits. I’m Southern. What...
Chefadora AI has the answer - timers, swaps, step-by-step help.
Place chicken breasts in a large zip lock bag with marinade, seal, and refrigerate for at least 3 hours.
Caramelize onions and mushrooms in butter over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Stir in balsamic vinegar and toss.
Combine onions and mushrooms with feta, olives, and capers.
Cut a slit in the thickest side of chicken breasts and stuff with the onion mixture. Wrap with twine and tie to secure.
Grill or broil the chicken until done. Serve over grits.
Combine butter, balsamic vinegar, honey, flour, water, and salt in a pan over medium-high heat.
Whisk until the sauce thickens. Pour over the chicken and grits.
Top with more feta and parsley before serving.
Make sure to marinate the chicken for at least 3 hours to allow the flavors to penetrate fully.
Use baker's twine to securely wrap the chicken and prevent the stuffing from spilling out during cooking.
For a richer flavor, use high-quality balsamic vinegar and fresh feta cheese.
Serve the chicken over creamy grits for a Southern twist that complements the Greek flavors.
Can I use a different marinade if I can't find Moore's Zesty Garden Herb Marinade?

What can I substitute for Castelvatrano olives?

How do I know when the chicken is fully cooked?
The chicken is fully cooked when it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
Can I make the pan sauce ahead of time?
