Catalina Chicken

This is one of those recipes that is great for company.  First of all, it's deceptively easy yet it seems so elegant.  I literally received this recipe from a teacher colleague of mine in the early 1980's.  She worked for a caterer on the side and frequently served this.  There were so few ingredients that I've just always remembered it and it's always been a family favorite.  I used to chuckle when I'd serve it to company and they would ooh and ah over the sauce!
