  1. Mmmm, creamy, dilly and delicious! I veered from the technique after step 4: after removing chicken to a platter, I deglazed the pan with the lemon juice, then lowered the heat and melted my light-cream-cheese right in the skillet, then added dill, salt and sour cream, stirring constantly until incorporated. Spooned this onto the chicken and served. The sauce was perfectly warmed and included all those great pan drippings. This goes exceedingly well with oven roasted potatoes. A real taste delight.
     
  2. Very good. Although I too the recommendation of another review about the sauce in the skillet and it was awful. Thankfully I had enough ingredients to make the sauce as the recipe. Stick to it and it's delish!
     
  3. I changed this a little and put the sauce into the pan that i cooked the chicken in (removed the chicken first) to heat it up and make it a little thinner. Delicous, will definitly make it again :)
     
  4. I made this following the recipe, except used 1tsp fresh minced garlic instead (2 cloves) and it was Delicious! I also used Neufchatel cream cheese instead of regular cream cheese (1/3 less fat but still tasty). My picky picky son loved it too, so it's definitely a hit here and I'll make it again. Next time I'm going to try Olive Oil for the frying and cut down to low fat sour cream to reduce the fat and calories a bit, and the Olive Oil will be at least a healthier fat than the butter and still have good flavor. 7/26/07 Made it again, this time with the low fat sour cream and neufchatel cream cheese. Tasted great! Also cooked in Olive oil instead, but decided the butter flavor put it over the top, so added about 1/2 tsp to flavor it up before removing it from the pan. We still love it!
     
  5. This recipe was really tasty and I had most of the ingredients on hand. I cooked the chicken on medium low and it turned out really tender with a crispy crust. The sauce added a wonderful creaminess.
