Feta Stuffed Chicken - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1/4 cup sun-dried tomatoes, drained
    3.5 oz feta cheese, crumbled
    4 (4.5 oz) chicken breast fillets, trimmed
    1 tbsp vegetable or olive oil
    10.5 oz green beans, topped, halved lengthwise
    1 tbsp butter
    1 tbsp fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves, chopped
    None None lemon wedges, to serve
Preparation
    Preheat oven to 350\u00b0F.
    Combine sun-dried tomatoes and feta in a small bowl. Using a small sharp knife, cut a horizontal slit in the thickest part of each chicken breast to create a pocket. Stuff with feta mixture and secure with toothpicks.
    Heat oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Add chicken and cook for 2 mins per side. Transfer to a baking tray. Bake for 10 mins, or until browned and cooked through. Remove toothpicks.
    Meanwhile, blanch green beans in boiling salted water for 2 mins, or until just tender. Drain. Return to warm pan along with butter and parsley. Toss until butter is melted. Season.
    Serve chicken with green beans and lemon wedges.
