I've tasted a similar recipe, but with parmesan cheese instead of feta. I love feta cheese and the dijon mustard should add a very tangy taste!

A Greek dish has gotta' have some oregano and some lemon juice. And those olives should be Kalamatas!

I agree must have a little oregano, lemon juice and don't forget a couple cloves minced garlic or at least use some garlic powder for flavor for true Greek flavor

Grande Chicken Fajitas 
These Grande Chicken Fajitas are a Southwest-favorite! The key to making these really flavorful is to start off with well-seasoned chicken, which is why we coat ours with lots of spices. Add in plenty of tender-cooked peppers and onions and you've got yourself the bare bones of a Tex-Mex restaurant classic. Now, go on and dig in!
