Just because I almost never grill boneless skinless chicken breasts doesn’t mean I shouldn’t teach those who do the best way to do it. That’s the official reason I’m posting this. The actual reason is that I was looking for an excuse to consume large quantities of whipped feta. Enjoy!

Rarely visit here and seeing this is why. Presentation is not everything. This is grilled tenders on feta. Below basic, my family would laugh if I served this. 😇
You can also use the two zone technique when grilling chicken.
Ur the best chef John
One thing to note on charcoal grills, yeah the grill doesn't matter but the charcoal does. Do not get cheap charcoal.
Greek really is amazingly simple & very strong flavors. Lemon, garlic, rosemary, salt – and things like clove and cinnamon
May I get this recipe for Date night my girl will love this 😀 💗
I made this recipe, pairing it with grilled asparagus for dinner last for my family and I. It was a hit and surprisingly gave me another of a few ways that I'll actually eat chicken breast. I dislike chicken breast so much in fact that I was very tempted to substitute boneless skinless chicken thighs. Fortunately the chicken breast was tender and juicy with lots of flavor. I'll definitely make this again.
I love this man. And his cooking. Too hard to say which one I love more.
My guy you kidding me if you have cinder block and a and I know we allll do the oven rack and get come on
Every sentence is shaped like this /‾‾‾‾‾‾
🙂 nice
Does meat really absorb marinade? I’ve never found marinating rewarding. I love the idea of tasting meat in it’s true flavour but with a beautiful sauce caremilsed over it. Hence the chicken in seasoned oil as opposed to trying to get the flavour into the chicken. Just my thoughts.
I bet this would work with salmon.
Holy smokes!!! I made this, then a sandwich version, then in a salad take. Easily the best dang chicken breast I've ever had. Plate-smashing good. OPA!!
Your family is so lucky to have you cooking for them. OMG. 😍
Made this for dinner today. SOOOO GOOOD! I used 1 tsp dried oregano instead of 1 tablespoon of fresh and Lisbon Lemon balsamic vinegar. Marinated 3 hours. And the whipped feta? oh my, my. And Chef you are on to something with the idea of adding the oil to the marinade last. Thanks!
I was with you on this until you didn't add any capers and didn't garnish kalamata olives.
This was a nice excuse to try feta for the first time!
The whipped Feta also works really well with baked potatoes.
thank you chef john this goes crazy
