GREEK CHICKEN WITH TOMATO-FETA CHEESE SAUCE



Greek Chicken With Tomato-Feta Cheese Sauce image

You have to be a lover of feta cheese for this dish, this is a really easy chicken dish with lots of flavor. Leave the skin on the chicken for extra flavor on for this, and serve this over cooked noodles. This recipe can be doubled if desired. Serve this with my Greek salad #66596.
