This recipe earned me first place in a local cooking contest a few years ago. For special occasions, I add four to six sun-dried tomatoes (soaked and drained according to package directions) to the cheese mixture before blending. —Nina Ivanoff, Prince George, British Columbia

Ingredients

  • 4 boneless skinless chicken breast halves
  • 2 cups (8 ounces) crumbled feta cheese
