The recipe is appropriately named!!! I doubled the sauce portion of the recipe -- I wanted to make sure I have enough. We're not big spinach fans, so I served the chicken over some rice and had roasted fresh asparagus with it. I also added the sauteed mushrooms to the sauce. We enjoyed this very much. Thank you for sharing this recipe with all of us.

This was very, very good! I first sauteed some mushrooms and then added them to the sauce later. I followed the recipe for the sauce (but did add a bit more milk) and, like another reviewer, cooked the chicken breasts on my George Formean Grill. I also followed the suggestion to serve it with sauteed spinach (but on the side, as my hubby does not care for spinach). It was a lovely meal - thanks for sharing!

Delish! I was searching for something low in carbs and fat for my husband who was just diagnosed with diabetes and this one worked great. I served it with sauteed spinach and mushrooms and I cooked the chicken on the George Foreman. I will definelty do it again. I just wish I had taken out more chicken this morning!
