"Another recipe from my friend Kelly. This is relatively simple to make. Even though it has a lot of ingredients, it tastes like you are a chef. It is important to use unsalted broth. I made the mistake of using regular salted broth the first time I made this and it was way too salty (and I like salty foods)."

Easy, tasty recipe. The breasts I used were quite thick so I found it needed 15 minutes to finish. I covered the skillet and turned heat to low. The sauce and chicken are a lovely golden color and the finished chicken is moist. Nice blend of flavors Nothing overpowers but they compliment one another. This is a lovely addition to my chicken recipes thanks taylortwo

This dish was OK. I didn't love the flavor, and my fiance did not care for the texture of the sauce.

i tried to treat my husband my replicating one of his favorite restaurant dishes, and he was suitably impressed. i can't give an indepth exposition of the taste since i don't eat chicken myself - but suffice it to say, it earned me a weekend away from the kitchen with my husband toiling over the stove instead:) i served this with cheese mezzaluna and some fresh grated parmesan and cracked pepper.
