Method

Ingredients

1. Preheat the oven to 220°C. Lift the skin of the chicken, leaving it attached on one side. Mash the feta with 1 T olive oil, the oregano and garlic and add a twist or two of pepper. Stuff the feta mixture under the skin of the chicken breasts and cover with the flap of skin.

2. Oil lightly and arrange on a large baking tray lined with baking paper and roast for 10 minutes.

3. Meanwhile, toss the tomatoes and olives with 1 T olive oil, season and add to the roasting tray in the oven. Roast for 10 minutes.

4. Drizzle the lettuce with the remaining olive oil and season to taste. Arrange around the chicken and roast for 4–5 minutes, or until the chicken is golden and tender and the lettuce is starting to brown at the edges. Spoon the dressing over each serving. Serve warm.
