I wish we had liked this better than we did as it has all the ingredients we love. However, I think the flavor was just ok. I should have really went with my first instinct and cooked the angel hair pasta separate because once I added it, the sauce got really thick and the pasta clumped together. This would have definitely made a difference in how much we liked the dish because the sauce could have been poured over the pasta. The chicken did turn out very tender. I think about 4 or 5 hours at the most would be sufficient to cook as the sour cream started to curdle a bit closer to the 6 hour mark.

Great Dish! The pasta was a bit odd, but that's my fault cause I doubled it to feed mine and my sister's families. As we discussed I used cream soup instead of the sour cream. Next time I'll use the sour cream (when my niece isn't here) and let you know how the difference is. Since I used cream of mushroom, I skipped the mushrooms, but added green and red peppers.
