We love fire roasted tomatoes, so what better way to use them but with chicken, some herbs, wine, and cheese! It took a few times making it to get measurements for the recipe as I am one of those that throws it in and says "yes, that looks like the right amount!" This can be made with chicken thighs or boneless skinless chicken breasts, just adjust your cooking time.
