Directions

  1. Marinate breast meat with other marinade ingredients for at least one hour.
  2. Remove chicken from marinade (reserve some); cook on a grill over medium-high heat (or grill in a pan), turning once until cooked through, about 10-12 minutes; keep warm.
  3. While the chicken is cooking, half the tomatoes and toss with reserved vinaigrette and salt in a medium bowl.
  4. Lower grill heat to medium; spread tomatoes in a foil pan (or use a sheet of foil with the edges turned up to make a home-made pan; pinch the corners to make it tighter); sear tomatoes cut sides down, about 2 minutes.
  5. Return tomatoes to bowl, toss with oregano.
  6. Slice chicken and transfer to serving platter; Spoon tomatoes alongside chicken; sprinkle feta cheese and more oregano (if desired) over tomatoes.
