Fantastic spring time dish! It does work best to keep the pot covered when you add the chicken stock and also when you add the remaining ingredients. This way there is some liquid left when you add the parmesan and you don't need to add any more chicken stock. I will definately make this again!

Probably my favorite main-dish recipe of all time. I often make it with chicken sausage instead of grilled chicken strips and it is always such a hit. Sam's Club sells a chicken-spinach sausage that is perfect for this recipe. Enjoy!
This was very easy and very good. I woud alter next time in a couple of ways - a little red pepper flakes and I would substitute pine nuts for the pecans. The pecans were interesting but pine nuts seem better suited to the dish.
Really liked this recipe. My husband who really is picky about his chicken dishes thought this was great. I did substitute pesto in place of the basil leaves as I did not have fresh basil and the stuff at the store looked a bit less than fresh. Turned out great. Thanks for a super recipe.
Great dish- family loved it! Used Havarti cheese instead of parmesan- it melts better and toasted the pecans while I was grilling the chicken
Awesome! Absolutely the best dish we have made from this site. I would not change anything. Next time I might try breaking the pecans up so that I get more in every bite. Also we roasted the pecans in the oven before adding them but it would be good even without the nuts.
Great dish! Only used 1 bunch of asparagus and added mushrooms.
Great great dish. We made it for some friends that are getting married in 4 days. Very easy to prepare and very filling. We doubled the recipe actually and sent the remainder (which was quite a bit) home with them for the rest of the week so they didn't have to cook. Yea it was that much. The only thing I would do differently is cut down the amount of Penne noodles the recipe calls for. The dish itself is so good that you end up looking for a fork full without the noodles. They work well together but I will probably use half the noodles next time.
Fabulous! Quick and easy with great flavor! Will definitely make again. Husband and I really liked the addition of the pecans. You can add any veggies that you like and season it to your individual taste. We loved it just as is!
I found this recipe to be bland. I actually put a tablespoon of freshly minced garlic and everyone thought it could still use alot more. I also thought some red pepper flakes could have helped. I gradually added the parmesan cheese and it didn't blend in very nicely. I thought the pecans were a nice touch but they kind of freaked my sister out when she thought it could possibly be a hard piece of chicken. I think the next time I would make it without the chicken maybe just toss the parmesan on at the end rather than trying to blend it in and definitely add more spices.
