Best company recipe I ever tried. It was originally given to my mother 30 yrs ago, and she had to swear to keep it a secret! A good accompaniment for this is brown or wild rice, and broccoli.

I made this recipe for my in-laws and it was a hit! The chicken was real tender and the flavour was incredible. I probably cooked it for 45 minutes rather than 1 1/2 hours. I think that's way too long and the chicken would have been way too dry. I also didn't have any almonds but other than that I followed the recipe exactly. I would definitely like to try it with almonds next time but it was just as good without! Yum! This recipe is a keeper! Read More

dry and bland. might be OK with some changes. Add rosemary or thyme. Try Sherry instead of white wine? Pan sear the chicken and bake for 30 minutes? Read More

Sorry but we really did not like this recipe. I followed it exactly and had to thicken the sauce with a butter/flour mixture. It never thicken the other way. Then when it baked for so long the sauce was VERY thin and didn't offer ANY flavor. I think that if the chicken was browned in a skillet and "quick" baked with the sauce it may be better.Good luck trying it Read More

Recently made this for 72 people - recipe scaled perfectly great recipe - I used about twice the quantity of flour (maybe even three times) to thicken tho - then really nice thick creamy sauce (its a LOT of cream!!) Top tip - when cooking for that many people its an awful lot of mushrooms but it works very very well. You have to add them gradually tho or they won't fit! I cooked this then kept it warm for about half an hour - worked fine served with new potatoes and green beans Read More
