5 -6 boneless skinless chicken breasts

1/2 a diced tomato
2 tablespoons diced onions
2 garlic cloves
1/2 jalapeno pepper (optional)
1 teaspoon oregano
1/2 teaspoon basil

Pre-heat oven to 350.

Using a sharp knife, cut into the fatest part of each breast and create a pocket. Be careful not to cut straight through.

5
Place the coated chicken in a greased glass pan.
6
Stuff the feta mix into the pockets of each chicken breast.

Cook for 45 minutes.
