This was delicious (especially the sauce) and easy to put together. I did have to braise the chicken much longer than the recipe stipulates (about 45 mins.). I served it with rice pilaf and asparagus lightly sprinkled with goat cheese. It met with rave reveiws from my husband--I intend to make it again, and would confidently serve it to company.
