I give this 4 stars though I don't think I did it justice. I had more chicken than needed- it affected the meat/sauce ratio. Still the sauce was tasty & looked lovely. I'll probably make more next time. Re poaching,it would take longer to cook if you didn't do it. I didn't think it was too fussy. - 9/30/15

Very good, but a bit fussy to make. Not sure why poaching is needed at first. - 5/2/10

Has anybody tried this without poaching the chicken first, just baking it? - 4/10/10

Curious why the chicken needs to be poached first. I would think the baking time would cover it? - 3/30/10

The chicken breasts I usually have are very thick. Poaching allows the meal to come together quickly. If you use raw breasts it could double the cooking time. You could use the breast left over from a roast chicken instead, or increase the cooking time.
