An easy-to-throw-together and colourful chicken casserole full of wonderful Mediterranean flavours such as bacon, paprika, red peppers, tomatoes, herbs, olives, capers and, of course, feta cheese. This can be cooked on the stove top on a busy week-night to feed a family of four. Alternatively, if you're cooking for just one or two you can eat half of it with mashed potatoes or olive oil toasts and then turn the other half into a pie the next day!
