Although I pretty much followed your recipe right on down, I did use a homemade pasta sauce that included both sweet & mild Italian sausage, & that, along with the chicken made for a very satisfying meal (actually two, since there were just 2 of us)! You have a great recipe here! Thanks for sharing it! [Made & reviewed in New Kids on the Block recipe tag]
