This quick and simple dish packs a lot of great flavor. I used just a tbsp of butter and lightly dusted the chicken breasts with flour before browning, but otherwise followed directions. I used sherry, because that's what I had on hand. Everyone loved it. This will be made again, especially great for a weeknight meal when time is short.
