Jamie Oliver's stuffed chicken with Pita

We were invited to my mother's for dinner this last week, and she served the most wonderful stuffed chicken filets from a Jamie Oliver recipe. She had seen this on TV and didn't catch the exact ingredients for the chicken but my gosh she whipped up a good stuffing even so. This was such a good recipe that only a few days later I had to give it a try.

(Recipe serves 4)

3 large skinless chicken breasts (butterflied and pounded)
3-4 garlic cloves (finely chopped)
1 pot of chives (finely chopped)
1 pot of flat leaf parsley (finely chopped)
200g feta cheese (diced)
1 tablespoon dry thyme
Good dash of olive oil
sea salt and pepper

Pita bread (pack of 6)
olive oil
sea salt
dry thyme

Start by chopping up the herbs and garlic, cut up the feta cheese and mix in with herbs, season with thyme, salt and pepper and mix with the olive oil.

Butterfly and pound the chicken breasts flat, then roll them up with the mixture in the middle, hold in place with toothpicks.

"Butter" the pita bread with olive oil and sprinkle both salt and thyme over. 

Wet a baking sheet all the way till you can squeeze water out of it, then place 3 and 3 pita breads on top of each other and wrap them in the wet baking sheet. 

Place both chicken and pita in the oven on the same rack and bake on 200 degrees celsius for 30min

 Then take the pita out while you place the chicken higher up in the oven and put on the grill for a couple of minutes to brown the top.

Slice up and serve with a nice salad.

Let me know how you like this one :)

Bon Appetit!
