Description

This is a great recipe for anytime-but it's especially great for those of us who like to cook several meals on the weekend in preparation for a busy week. You can make this half way and then thaw and finish mid week... it's great.

Ingredients
  • 3 tablespoons butter
  • 8 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • ¼ cup finely chopped onion
  • 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
  • ¼ cup vodka
  • 1 tablespoon tomato paste
  • ¾ cup chicken broth
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1 ½ teaspoons dried parsley
  • 1 ½ cups sour cream
  • ¼ cup crumbled feta cheese
Directions
  1. 1. Melt 3 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken, and cook until browned on both sides and no longer pink in the center, about 10 minutes; place into a 9x13 inch baking dish and set aside.
  2. 2. Reduce the heat to medium, and melt the remaining butter in the pan. Stir in the garlic, and onion, and cook for 2 minutes, stirring constantly until the onion has begun to soften. Stir in the flour, and continue cooking 5 minutes more. Add the vodka, and bring to a simmer over medium-high heat, stirring constantly. Allow to simmer for 2 minutes, then stir in the tomato paste, chicken broth, salt, pepper, parsley, sour cream, and feta cheese. Reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer 20 to 30 minutes stirring frequently.
  3. 3. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  4. 4. Pour the hot sauce over the chicken breasts, and bake in preheated oven until the top has browned, about 20 minutes.
