Easy Chicken Chardonnay Casserole

This is an easy recipe that tastes great and sounds a little fancy. Our whole family gives this one a "thumbs up". I had Champagne Chicken at a restaurant and had tried to re-create it at home (with champagne, artichokes and grapes) - but I revised it so my little ones would eat it. Enjoy!
