Kalamata-Balsamic Chicken with Feta

I think summer is officially here!  Summer = grill in this house.  Truthfully I'd grill all winter long too but we have this pesky wind chill thing in Iowa where it gets pretty cold.

I was perusing the magazine aisle at Target one day last week and saw a new supplement put out by Weight Watchers - 15 minutes and 5 ingredient recipes.  Something along those lines anyway.  15 minutes for a meal sounded pretty good to me so I tossed a copy in my cart.

We had this one for supper the other night.  Rather than using a grill pan, I pounded the chicken and threw it on the grill, cooking the tomato mixture on the side burner ... all while watching the kids in the sandbox.  Can I multi-task or what??

This was a snap to put together and it tasted great.  Even better, I had everything I needed to make it, with the exception of the tomatoes.  Next time I'll double the tomato mixture as the kids gobbled it up.
