This was good but if I make again I will double the sauce, I skipped the pine nuts, and instead of frying the chicken I baked in the oven at 350 for 30 minutes and sprinkled with basil garlic salt and cayenne. I will use more feta next time to, very flavourful

This is very good, the recipe was forwarded to me by a friend that uses this website regularly. I used sun dried tomatoes in olive oil because that was what I had on hand, and browned the chicken (which I cut into bite sized pieces) in the tomatoes which had been drained and chopped. I have also made this with feta that contains basil and sundried tomatoes and it was very good as well.

This was really good. It was a little salty, but still very, very good. Definitely a keeper. It was even better reheated the next day. Thanks Lisa!

recently started cooking, and made this for the entire fam (all 5 of us), and they were so happy with the results. toasted the pine nuts with a bit of paprika on its own for a few minutes, then added half of it to the sauce... left the other half dry in a bowl for people to add if they wanted more. used more basil for more flavor...otherwise... definitely a good recipe

Sorry but I have to give this a thumbs down. Even with the sauce, the chicken was lacking flavor. I had put some salt and pepper on it when I was cooking it but it was pretty flavorless. My husband, who is not very picky, gave it an "eh". My suggestion is seasoning the chicken before cooking it.

We absolutely love this recipe!! I have been making it since June of 2000, when I first discovered this website. If fact, this is the first time I have come back to this website!!! It is my husbands favorite, and he complains I don't make it enough! Thank you, Lisa!!

really enjoyed this dish, there's a fantastic range of flavours. there's 2 of us but we always cook for 4 (saves cooking time during the week, as we both have full time jobs), and discovered that a night in the fridge allows the flavours to develop even more, so it's extra delicious on reheating. :)

This meal was extremely easy to prepare and delicious. I did not add the fresh basil. I will definitely make this one again!

I am on the south beach, so i skipped the pasta and the corn startch, used "south beach approved feta", and this was still DEEE-LISH!!!! Really great! Found that chopping up the chicken into chunks after its cooked, simmering in the sauce for a bit when its almost done and serving it "ala Cacciatore" style makes it yummy and easier to eat!
