Greek Salsa Lemon Chicken


A hot humid sticky day; but I am not complaining; I am rejoicing as we have had so few of these to enjoy!  This was a perfect dish to celebrate a summer day!  Lemon roasted chicken topped with salsa made up of traditional greek flavours & feta cheese;  served with rice and greek salad.
