Serve on a bed of white rice with a green salad.

Make sure to use sweet Marsala wine. Dry Marsala makes this dish taste too acidic.

Unfortunately I didn't have mushrooms or wine. I used Marsala cooking wine & went easy on salt & omitted mushrooms. Loved it.

I haven't tried this recipe, although I may, but I don't see how they can claim that it only costs 87 cents per serving.

I didn't follow the recipie to the 'T' because we like more seasonings and a thicker sauce. I used 2 tablespoons of minced garlic and a tablespoon of canola oil, placed 6 large pieces of frozen chicken on top and sprinkled them with granulated garlic and pepper. Poured 1.5 cups of chicken broth and half a cup of a sweeter side of red wine. Threw some fresh mushrooms on top and cooked on low for 5 hours. I then followed the directions to thicken the sauce but instead of water use some of the stock you just made. l loved it with mashed potatoes and the stock as the gravy.

I followed the recipe to the letter. It was horrible. I was entertaining and I was embarrassed. It tasted like boiled chicken and it would not thicken. I threw the recipe away. I would give it no stars.

I think I'll stick to the old fashion way made in a skillet.
