- 1/2 cup sliced pitted kalamata olives
- 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano leaves, crushed

- 1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese
- hot cooked orzo pasta

Directions:

Heat the oil in a 10-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken. Cook for 10 minutes or until well browned on both sides. Remove chicken from skillet.
