I made this last night and i am sorry to say it was not good for me. Honestly noone ate the chicken. -
I made this with boneless, skinless chicken breasts and the chicken was really juicy! I left out the butter and just sauted in nonstick cooking spray. The sauce was really bland -- needed salt or something to give it a little "kick", but overall a good recipe!

I LOVE to cook and eat and read cookbooks. My kitchen really does overfloweth with them and of course this has quickly become my favorite cooking site! I live with my husband in a small town in eastern Connecticut. We are both retired. My children are all grown and have families of their own now. Our 3 grandchildren and 1 great-granddaughter all live in Florida and it goes without saying that we miss them very much, so when my husband retired last year we celebrated by buying a small RV! We so enjoyed driving it to Florida to spend the holidays with the little ones. Although COVID has prevented us from repeating the trip this year, I am enjoying learning new recipes to make in our RV for next year. I think the Instant Pot and the Crock Pot will be my new best friends while traveling!
