Recipesfull introduces to you: Chicken Breast Recipes. (Feta and Sun-Dried Tomato Stuffed Chicken). This is an easy stuffed chicken breast that is absolutely yummy. I listed the olives as optional because I do not like olives, but I have made it with them for my husband (who loves olives) and he said it was very good. This dish goes really nicely with couscous and a Greek-style salad.
