Heat skillet with extra virgin olive oil. Add onions, garlic paste, herbs, chicken or vegetable stock, and saute onions over medium heat until caramelized.

Increase to high heat, salt chicken directly, and sear the outside, turning them with tongs for 5 minutes.



Transfer chicken to 400 degree oven, cook for 12 minutes.

Remove from oven, plate and finish with sprinkling of feta cheese:

Optionally the pan can be deglazed with brandy, and use this sauce to sauce the plates.

I like this because I like restaurant style chicken, but if I'm eating out I feel robbed just getting the chicken. At home this makes a delightful and tasty protein source.
