While this had a great taste, it was just too much bread. Seems like there needs to be more sauce. It was very easy to make, however, after sauteing onions in the chicken broth (only 1/4 cup) by the time the onions are remotely soft, there is no liquid left. When you add the flour, there is not enough liquid to make anything bubbly as stated in the instructions.I had to add more broth after adding the flour to keep it from burning. I think with some tweaking, this would be better. As it was, it was too much bread and not enough chicken and sauce.
