Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
Oil or spray ramekins with vegetable oil cooking spray.
Heat olive oil over medium heat in a skillet.
Dice the onion and minced garlic.
Add to pan and sauté 2 minutes or until softened.
Dice the chicken breast into small pieces cut into ½ inch (1.25 cm) pieces.
Add to the onions, stir and continue to sauté another 5 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through.
Prepare the kale by removing the tougher central ribs; discard.
Slice the leaves into ½ inch (1.25 cm) wide strips.
Add to the pan with the chicken, along with the hot red pepper flakes (optional) and fresh thyme leaves.
Sauté until just wilted - about two minutes.
Slice tomato into ½ inch (1.25 cm) thick tomato slices.
Place a slice in the bottom of each ramekin.
Divide cooked chicken and kale among ramekins.
Beat the eggs with the yogurt, salt and pepper in a medium bowl.
Divide evenly among ramekins.
Sprinkle with the crumbled feta cheese.
Place ramekins on a tray and on middle rack of preheated oven until they are set in the center, about 25 to 35 minutes until lightly browned and a knife inserted in the centre comes out clean.
