Chicken with feta and olives



Ingredients:

8 chicken pieces
1 onion chopped
25g fresh oregano leaves
2 tbsp tomato paste
2 cans of chopped tomatoes
150g black olives
150g feta, crumbled

Heat olive oil in saucepan and cook the chicken pieces, in batches, for 3-4 minutes, or until golden. Remove from the pan and set aside.

In the same saucepan, heat the remaining oil and cook the onion and half the oregano leaves for 3 minutes, or until the onion is soft. Add the tomato paste to the onion mixture and stir for 2 minutes, then add the tomato and the chicken pieces.

Simmer, covered, for 40-50 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through. Add the olives and remaining oregano leaves. Top with crumbled feta.
