I believe this came out of a Good Housekeeping mag back in the early 80's,when I was still a "blushing bride" and a very inexperienced cook.I absolutely love the taste of the sauce,and these days, I make the rice without the veggies in it,and make some broccoli or asparagus on the side

Made in honor of our dear friend MEP. This was for the cook-a-thon given in her honor. I did change part of this recipe and made more of a white gravy to have over the rice. I used real sliced mushrooms and saute them with the celery and onion. I than fried the chicken as stated and removed and made a white gravy with whipping cream and the chicken broth. Lefted out the thyme as we are not fans of this spice. It was a delicious dish and I served recipe#49397 and green peas with this meal.Reply

My husband asked me when will I be making this again. ;) I made a few changes and switches: fresh mushrooms instead of canned and subbed French tarragon for thyme. I made a mistake (partly because I didn't read through the directions first!) by forgetting to add the celery, onion and mushrooms to the rice. I sauteed the mixture in a separate pan and honestly, I think I liked it better that way because the celery still had some "bite" to it. The sauce only took about 1 minute to thicken, too. I will definitely be preparing this again soon because it was delicious, quick and easy. For MEP.Reply

Delicious! A winning combo and makes such a nice presentation too! I might cut back on the sage a bit the next time as a personal choice, but overall, its a delicious dish sure to please! Made for the Cookathon in memory of MEP 09'Reply
