4 very large boneless, skinless chicken breasts
2 teaspoons olive oil
2 teaspoons Greek seasoning
1/2 c. cherry tomato halves

HOW TO MAKE EASY LOW-CARB GREEK CHICKEN BAKE
Step 1: Prepare the oven. Preheat it to 375 degrees F or 190 degrees C.
Step 2: Trim and remove any fatty or undesirable parts of four large chicken breasts. Coat the entire chicken with Greek Seasoning.
Step 3: In a frying pan, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, cook one side of the chicken breasts for about 2 minutes until almost brown. Flip the chicken and cook the other side for a couple of minutes. Make sure not too overdone the chicken.
Step 4: Transfer the chicken to a cutting board to cool for a minute or two.
Step 5: In the meantime, ready the other ingredients. Drain and slice the olives, slice the tomatoes, deseed and slice the peperoncini, and crumble the feta.
Step 6: Once the chicken is cool enough to handle, cut them into about 3 to 4 lengthwise strips.
Step 7: With non-stick spray, grease an 8 x 13-inch or 9 x 12-inch casserole dish.
Step 8: In the prepared dish, arrange the chicken breasts crosswise.
Step 9: Over the chicken strips, add the tomatoes, olives, pepperoncini, and crumbled feta. Then, season with fresh-ground black pepper.
Step 10: Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for about 25 minutes or until the chicken is hot and the cheese is melting. Using a meat thermometer, check the internal temperature of the chicken if it already reached 165 degrees F or 75 degrees C.
Step 11: Enjoy hot!
