Abstract: In this paper we generalize the result of Fouvry and Iwaniec dealing with prime values of the quadratic form $x^2+y^2$ with one input restricted to a thin subset of the integers. We prove the same result with an arbitrary primitive positive definite binary quadratic form. In particular, for any positive definite binary quadratic form $F$ and binary linear form $G$, there exist infinitely many $ell,minmathbbZ$ such that both $F(ell,m)$ and $G(ell,m)$ are primes as long as there are no local obstructions.
