Honey-Marinated Chicken Baked with Feta (Print-Friendly Version)

Chicken marinates in honey, red wine vinegar, garlic and oregano before baking under feta. The used marinade is discarded, so this method differs from chicken served with a separate clean honey drizzle. Allow refrigerator time before the oven stage and judge doneness in the meat beneath the cheese.
