super yummy and the chicken was SUPER TENDER! I used canned tomatoes and the only thing that I would change is to not use all of the juice from the can. Plus, I might get jazzy and increase the white wine a bit.

Great recipe especially considering the low calories! My only substutions: all I had was marinated artichokes, so I rinsed them off and then soaked them in water for a couple of hours to draw out salt... and based on najwa's comment, I left out the seasoning salt DH LOVED the dish! THANKS so much for posting

Made this for a dinner party last night. Made exactly as stated, except I added some capers to the mix. This was so delicious. Had a dinner party with 4 people & everyone ate it all up. There was nothing left! Thanks for a keeper recipe!
