This was pretty good, but the directions were a tad confusing. I ended up adding the drained artichokes with the garlic and sauteed them for a few minutes, then added the brine with the tomatoes. I used Cavender's Greek Seasoning. I also think it could benefit from some additional feta. Made for Football Tag Week #9.

This was VERY tasty (5 stars), but I'm only giving it 4 stars because the directions were a little lacking -- couldn't find where I was to add the artichoke hearts or what to do with the reserved liquid - so I just added them with the tomatoes and didn't use the liquid. Flavors were very good, I added a couple sprinkles of some Greek Seasoning I just received in a swap as well as the oregano. Very tasty dish and quick and easy to prepare. Thanks School Chef, and congratulations on your Football Pool Wk #9 win!!
