This is a wonderful chicken dish. The chicken was so juicy and the flavors mixed so well together. I didn't have fresh parsley so I just sprinkled some dry into the sauce which worked fine.

YUM! A little bit of extra work needed to brown the chicken, but a tasty recipe that pleased, since the flavours of the wine and veggies blended well together. I omitted the mushrooms becuase I'm allergic to them, but stuck to the rest of the recipe. Please see my rating system: a tasty chicken dish that I will definiately make again, but with more herbs and more garlic to suit our taste for slightly stonger flavours. Thanks!

Made this dish tonight. Used 1 cup water and 1 boullion cube instead of wine. Was awesome. Just be careful because boullion is salty so did not Salt chicken

Mmmm! this was very nice I used chicken thighs but everything else was as the recipe said, I will make this again as it was so easy to put together. I used a nice wine and I do think that makes all the difference. Thank you for posting. Made for Honor thy mother May 2011.

I thought this was awful. I gave it to my dog who seemed to love it though. Had a bag a popcorn for dinner instead.
