• 1 tablespoon vegetable oil

It was very nice I would make it again

I have had this saved for a long time and finally made it tonight. We really enjoyed this very yummy chicken dish. It is neither gluey nor gummy but a perfectly smooth and rich sauce even with 1% millk. It could certainly be thinned with a bit more milk if one prefers a runnier sauce. So easy, so good. Thanks for sharing your recipe!

This recipe did not work for me at all, and I followed it precisely as written. My apologies for giving such a negative review, but what else can I do when I threw out the food without serving it? I was really nervous about the two tablespoons of flour, and as it turned out, with good reason. The sauce was so gummy and gluey it was inedible. Again, sorry for the negativity, but this didn't work for me at all. If I were to try it again (doubtful) I would definitely scale back the flour. Two TBS is way to much for one cup of milk!

This was flavorful and easy to make. Followed recipe exact, except I used breasts in place of thighs because that is what I had on hand. Thanks for posting.

Excellent all the way around! Easy to prepare and easy to eat. Very tasty. Makes a nice presentation for guest. I thought the flavors all blended well together. Nothing was overpowering. This is going to be a keeper. I'm putting it in my top 20 2008 cookbook. Thanks Boomette 1 for posting.
