Lemon Chicken with a Greek Accent

1 lemon
1/3 c. pitted Kalamata olives
3 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1/2 c. garlic cloves
5-6 sprigs fresh thyme
1/2 c. extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 t. Greek seasoning
Aluminum foil

If making sandwiches:
4 sandwich buns (optional)
8 oz. hummus
1/4 c. feta cheese crumbles

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Cut lemon into very thin slices. Slice olives.

Place chicken in a 2-qt. baking dish; add garlic cloves and thyme sprigs around chicken. Pour oil over chicken. Sprinkle with Greek seasoning. Arrange lemon slices on top of chicken and cover with foil. Bake 30-40 minutes. Let stand 5 minutes before slicing.

To make sandwiches: Split buns and spread hummus on bottom halves. Slice chicken and arrange over hummus. Place olives and roasted garlic cloves on top of chicken. Top with feta crumbles.

Note: Cooked lemon slices will be very tender. They can be served with the chicken or on the sandwiches.

Serves 4.
