This is an easy chicken recipe that can be easily doubled, depending on the number of people. The red onions gives it a bit of sweetness while, the feta gives it a creamy texture which goes nicely with pasta noodles. This was on Diane Kochilas’s new show My Greek Table. I found a similar recipe on her website but it looks like she made some changes. Here is that website.. Diane Kochilas
There’s not a lot of measurements given on the show, so I tried to provide you with some as best as I could. Enjoy!
