S.O.S.: Recipe for feta chicken (chicken feta)?

[schuh]

Help! I can't find a recipe that I set aside for dinner tonight. (One of the disadvantages of being a "clipper" is that you can lose those scraps of paper. )

Anyway, can anyone help me with the recipe for Feta Chicken? Maybe it's called Chicken With Feta or something like that. It's a main dish and it's chicken with a feta cheese sauce. I think it's from a relatively recent issue. I've done a search but doing a search with "Chicken" and "feta" gets you half the board!

Thanks in advance...

Is this it? Sometimes it helps to limit your search to just titles.

Thanks so much, Aggie. That's it. I couldn't remember the title at all.

CJM, how was it? I didn't get a chance to get back ont he computer and ended up doing a new grilling recipe (balsamic chicken) that was mediocre.

This one sounded good and easy (plus, my youngest, who's five, is wild about feta). I have feta in the fridge, chives in the garden, so maybe tomorrow...

Thanks again!

Well, I made it last night for dinner. It's not company stuff, but it was a good family dinner for us. Amazingly, my DH and kids all ate it -- this is not often accomplished in our household. (I did make the sauce, divided it into two parts, and added the chives to just one part -- this to avoid the "green" phobia by my youngest.) My only hangup was that the evaporated milk has a weird orangy/yellowy color that also defines the color of the sauce.
