Delicious. All I had was corkscrew pasta, so I used that. The ONLY thing I would change would be to double or even triple the sauce ingredients. We like a lot of sauce.
Read MoreI hate to give it three stars as everyone seems to like it so well but I was really disappointed, my family was not impressed either and doesn't want me to make it again. I was sure it would be awesome, I followed the recipe, IDK....? It was ok.

We loved this recipe. I am all about shortcuts so I did use Cream of Chicken Soup in place of all the ingredients that go into making the sauce (chicken stock, flour, and whipping cream). A true foodie would not be satisfied with this, but we thought it was delicious.
Made this by the recipe however I don’t understand the need to butterfly the chicken. I Think tenders would work well. The sauce was yummy. I did cook the chicken in the oven @ 450 degrees instead of frying it.
I made this for my wife since I do most of the cooking, she loved it and said yes to Marry Me Chicken. She wants me to make it again and sometime this week I will do so.
This was really good, I used chicken fingers, they were moist and melted in your mouth. Sauce was excellent...this was even better the next day for lunch! Keeping this one!
Great! I omitted the Sun dried tomatoes because I realized at the last second that I didn’t have any. I was worried the sauce would be too rich without them, so I added a but more than a pinch of the pepper flakes, and the result was delicious. I also reserved some of the pasta cooking water and used it to thin the sauce before putting the chicken and bacon in, and that was a great way to extend the amount of sauce without diluting the flavor (and the starch in the water helps keep it creamy).
Very true to the title Marry Me Chicken! I substituted the pasta for zuchinni noodles and added less chicken broth, more whipping cream. Delish!
This is a great recipe, it tasted delicious! I didn’t add the thyme, dried tomatoes, and dried red peppers because I didn’t have the ingredients on hand. I also substituted the fresh parmesan cheese, for the non fresh parmesan cheese; heavy whipping cream was substituted with sour cream and splash of milk; and minced garlic was substituted for 1/2 tablespoon of garlic powder and 1/2 tablespoon of onion powered. I ended up using 1 cup of chicken broth which was perfect for the noodles, which I used regular spaghetti pasta. Once the chicken was done, I put it back in the oven and melted coby jack cheese in top. My family loved it! Will definitely be making this again.
Easy and yummy recipe ... I doubled the sauce and added chopped broccoli for a little pop of color and left out the bacon ... Guess its a good thing he already married me lol.
Thank you for sharing this recipe!
This recipe is spot on!!! Only suggestion, double the sauce!!!!

Well I would marry you!! Omg. What a delicious recipe. The problem of course is it is not easy on the waistline with the butter, bacon and cream. But one needs to splurge every once in a while. Fantastic. My kids want to have this weekly. I served over rice instead of angel hair - family preference. Otherwise make exactly as written. Thank you.
Not your every day recipe. I tried it, I liked it, everybody enjoyed it. I followed the recipe to a T but doubled the sauce because I figured it would be over pasta.
This was amazing, served it over zucchini noodles. The sauce was so good, I could’ve tripled it!
Very good. Thank you
I made the recipe as per the instructions, but it was bland. It was OK, but I won't make it again.
this is an excellent recipe! Thank you, may entire family loved it! 4 starts because it didn't make enough sauce for my liking, next time I'll double the sauce.
I made it, thought it was delicious. Husband loved it. I doubled the sauce as recommended by another reviewer. I used smaller breasts so didn’t bother butterflying them. Very tasty. Next time I might add mushrooms for a change, thank you!
Flavor = no doubt 5 stars. We loved this. Also relatively easy to put together. Problems with the recipe; I don’t see the benefit by butterflying the chicken. Perhaps to make thin fillets? If yes, tenderloins will do the trick. A lb of angel hair pasta is too much - and we tripled the sauce. Speaking of sauce - delicious! But yes, so glad we tripled and even still - to a lb of pasta? Could have quadrupled. Would make again with these modifications and is a recipe worth a proposal. Thank you!!
Perfect meal to make after a long day of shopping!
I made this recipe exactly as the recipe said and I found it very bland and there was not enough sauce to cover the pasta. I had to add extra chicken broth at the end to make the sauce thinner to cover more of the pasta. My oldest son did eat it so that is a WIN in my books. I also cut up the chicken into pieces so it was easier to serve the family. Next time I will definitely add more seasoning and more chicken.
I doubled the sauce, swapped white wine for part of the broth, used 2T tomato paste instead of sun dried tomatoes. I added some Asian mushroom broth powder, but would have used fresh mushrooms if my guest liked them. I also used cut up chicken instead of breast pieces. Finally, added cherry tomatoes, halved, and fresh herbs on top of the pasta. The sauce was very good, but the chicken itself could have used a good marinade in seasoned brine the night before. I think bow tie pasta would better allow the sauce to stay on the pasta, since spinning the fork around pulls most of the sauce and garnishes off the noodles.
This was so delicious. Something I would get in a fabulous restaurant. The only thing I would change next time would be to double the sauce
I havent made it yet but was wondering why you need to butterfly the chicken and not cut all the way through as it has to be cut anyway for the guests as its supposed to feed 6. Anyone know the answer?
This recipe was great! I did take the short cut of using cream of chicken soup as suggested by one reviewer. I didn't have any heavy cream & this looked so good so I thought I'd try with the cream of chicken. I also used chicken tenders instead of a butterflied chicken breast. The chicken was very tender and the sauce was tasty. My family loved it and we will be adding it into our regular recipes.
This was DELICIOUS! This is the 2nd time I made it. But time I added 1 and 1/2 cups of Chicken Broth & Heavy Cream.
