This recipe was pretty good, my husband thought the sage was overwhelming so next time I will cut it in half.

This is a very good chicken recipe! I scaled it down to feed the hubby and I and we loved the sauce over our rice pilaf. I added some chicken bouillon to the wine, rather than salt. Thanks for sharing!!
