Instructions

To Caramelize the Onions

Slice the onions as thinly as attainable.

Place them in a heavy-bottomed pot or skillet over low warmth.

Cook the onions slowly and gently, stirring occasionally, till they’re a deep golden brown and very gentle.

This can take as much as an hour, however it’s definitely worth the wait.

Once the onions are caramelized, take away them from the heat and allow them to cool barely.

To Make the Feta Stuffing

Stir together the crumbled feta cheese, chopped fresh dill, grated lemon zest, salt and pepper in a bowl. Finely cube the purple onion. Add the diced onion to the cheese combination and stir to mix.

To Assemble and Bake the Chicken

1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

2. In a small saucepan, melt butter over medium warmth. Add onions and cook, stirring often, until caramelized and golden brown, about 15 minutes.

3. Stir in feta cheese, parsley, bread crumbs, salt and pepper. Remove from warmth and let cool.

4. Lay chicken breasts on a slicing board and make a lengthwise incision in the middle of each breast, without chopping all through. Open up the chicken breasts like a guide.

5. Stuff every chicken breast with the onion mixture. Fold the chicken breasts closed and safe with toothpicks.

6. Place the stuffed chicken breasts in a baking dish. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.

7. Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or till cooked via. Let rest for five minutes before slicing and serving.
