One of my all time favorite chicken recipes combines sun dried tomatoes, onion, garlic and drum roll please... goat cheese! So yummy! If you have never tried cooking with goat cheese don't fret, this full bodied, rich cheese works well with chicken and steak dishese and amps up the flavor to a new level. If youre worried about weather you will love or hate the taste just try using a very small amount with the other toppings and add on to your liking. This dish can be prepared on the grill or on the stove and in the oven if you dont have a grill.
