Feta Topped Broiled Chicken

Pufi McFluffikins's Note:

I got this from a recipe exchange and it soon became a favorite. It is quick, easy, and delicious--great with a salad and some herbed orzo. I use it for dinner parties and for a quick meal after a long day at work. Only 20 minutes from start to finish......no kidding.

Yummy, healthy, quick, and simple. Couldn't ask for anything more. Based on other reviews, I also left out the rosemary, otherwise I followed the recipe exactly.

Excellent and fast recipe! Have made several times since originally making it, tinkering with it a little each time. Now I use regular tomato paste and cut back to 1/4 tsp of salt. I also omit the tomatoes and rosemary (for personal taste issues) and add 1/8 tsp garlic powder. Part of my regular recipe rotation now!
