Ingredients

6 skinless, boneless chicken breasts
1 1/2 tsp olive oil
1 tsp freshly ground black pepper
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp dried oregano leaves
130-g log creamy goat cheese

Instructions

Oil grill and preheat barbecue to medium-high. Brush both sides of chicken breasts with olive oil. In a small bowl, stir pepper with salt and oregano. Sprinkle mixture on both sides of meat. Grill chicken with lid closed until it feels springy when pressed, from 6 to 8 minutes per side. Remove to plates.
Spoon about 1 heaping tablespoon (22 mL) goat cheese over each chicken breast. Then top each breast with about 1/3 cup (75 mL) Autumn Caponata Sauce. Serve additional sauce on the side, if you like.
