This got mixed reviews at our house. I followed the recipe as written other then I didn't use the breadcrumbs and olive oil. I just cooked the chicken in a non-stick pan. I didn't add the mushrooms to the sauce either as I didn't have any. I also doubled the recipe for my family. It was a quick, easy dinner.

Good recipe, and easy to make. The flavor's kind of familiar and kind of different at the same time, if that makes any sense... I should also note that I left out the mushrooms (we aren't fans). Some people in my house liked this; some didn't. Personally, I thought it was good!
