I saw this recipe on Yahoo!Foods and modified it a bit for our tastes. It's kind of like a fancier macaroni and cheese, using the great feta cheese sauce.
Ingredients:
1 cup chicken broth (low sodium works fine)
2 teaspoons dried oregano
2 teaspoons dried basil
2 teaspoons dried sage
3 chicken breasts, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
8 ounces ziti pasta
4 ounces feta cheese, crumbled
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
3 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley or 3 teaspoons dried parsley
1 1/2 cups cherry tomatoes, halved
Directions:
1. Simmer broth, oregano, basil, and sage for about 4 minutes, or until only 1/2 cup of liquid remains, in a large pan with a lid.
2. Add chicken and let it steam in the hot broth for about 8 minutes by covering the pan with the lid and removing from heat.
3. Prepare ziti according to package directions.
4. Drain pasta and add to chicken mixture.
5. Toss pasta and chicken with the feta, lemon juice, pepper, and parsley.
6. Continue mixing until cheese is melted and top with the cherry tomatoes.
