Great! This is real comfort food. Really a great combination of flavors. I didn't have white wine so I used Marsala (every good Italian lady has Marsala in the house). I also added some finely shredded asiago cheese just befor serving. The family loved it. I will be making this again soon.

This is a simple & delicious one skillet meal. I used about 1 1/2 pds of chicken tenders, not breasts; added extra garlic; added capers at the the end for a little twist. I also sprinkled with parmesan cheese before serving. The taste was even better today, DH said, since he stole the leftovers! Served with a green salad and garlic bread. Thanks MizzNezz for passing this one on.

My husband liked this more than I did. He, the French husband, said that he would put some French mustard in it at the broth stage, so I will try that to make him happy next time. I also added some shredded Parmesan and parsley to perk it up as it is rather beige when done. Healthy, low fat recipe though.
