Fantastic Chicken Feta

I know that I am a little feta obsessed - but I made this last week with garlic roasted broccoli and it was delish and super easy and wonderfully filling. I found it at Recipezaar and tweaked it just slightly.

Fantastic Feta Chicken
6 boneless skinless chicken breast halves (tenderize with fork)
2 tablespoons lemon juice, divided
2 tablespoons of evoo
2 teaspoons chopped fresh oregano or 1/4 teaspoon dried oregano leaves, crushed
1/4 teaspoon fresh ground pepper
1 (4 ounce) package crumbled feta cheese
Fresh ground pepper to taste

Directions
Sprinkle with oregano and pepper (both sides)
Arrange chicken in 13X9-inch baking dish (brush 1T of evoo on bottom of dish)
Drizzle with 1 tablespoon of the juice.
Brush 1T of evoo over chicken
Top with cheese; drizzle with remaining 1 tablespoon juice.
Bake at 350°F for 30 to 35 minutes or until cooked through

Roasted Broccoli
1 head of broccoli cut into florets
Toss with ground pepper, salt and minced garlic (about 1T) and evoo or PAM
