Thank you! used regular feta, by the way, coz that was what I had , This is most definitely a keeper! Fantastic flavor used 1/4 c asiago and the rest was Parmesan The goat cheese made the sauce creamy and delicious I didn’t bother baking the chicken, to keep it moist used 4 cups of large grape tomatoes from my garden There was one portion left over and it was even better the next day I would serve this to company any time It has good eye appeal and is a restaurant quality recipe Thanks for sharing a truly great recipe
