"I love the dark meat of chicken, so this recipe is right up my alley. However, my DS, who hates the dark meat also loves it. Could it be in the way it is prepared?"

Enjoyed this recipe, however the cooking time of 20 minutes at 350 degrees was not long enough. We added another 20 minutes as the chicken was still pink inside. -
This is really good. I put it in the Crock pot for several hours. The sauce is wonderful! (I didn't add dill & put in a little garlic powder) -
We really enjoyed this dish, which is very easy to make. I used chicken breasts that I had on hand, and they worked just fine. In the middle of step 4, I used 1/2 of the chicken broth to deglaze the pan -- didn't want to waste those juices -- and then followed the rest of the recipe. Dill wasn't noted in the ingredients -- I used a teaspoon of dried. Made for Pick a Chef. Thanks aussiekarin for another creative way with chicken. -
Very Good, doubled the recipe, added some garlic. Thanks.

I originally joined the site as "aussiekarin", but decided instead to go with my nickname - Kayne. Sorry if this causes any confusion! I moved to the US from Australia in 1970, and apart from three years in Germanyhave been here the whole time. However, still consider myself an Australian, although I was actually born in Holland. Since I come from such a diversified background, my cooking is rather strange at times. Many times it is a combiniation of Dutch, Aussie / English, German and American. I'm not really much of a cook, but enjoy it, nevertheless. I just wish I knew more and could do more - without a recipe! I'm retired now, so one of my goals is to really learn to cook. I intend to enjoy my retirement, doing what I never had time to do before. Since joining Recipezaar in November, 2006, I find that my cooking has changed somewhat. I'm more adventurous, willing to try new and more varied tastes, and combinations, and just about all of what I prepare is edible. Lately, due to a major life change, I've been letting my cooking go, but hopefully that will change one day. Oddly, I miss it, more than I ever thought I would!!!!!
