Just wonderful. The only thing I would have liked was more explicit sauteeing instructions since my chicken was slightly overcooked since I was eyeballing the doneness. Nontheless....heavenly. Will make again.

There isn't much else I can add to the other comments so I'll just add my own YUMMY!!! Thank you Marie. Chicken breasts are usually dry but these were moist and delicious!

Chicken and filling is lovely, but the sauce is too 'stocky'. I added some lemon juice, oregano and tomato paste to the sauce, and it was much better. Garlic would also give the sauce more flavour.
