    Loved it! Made it twice already. The second time I added hot cherry peppers while frying the chicken for a little spice and it came out even better! - 9/12/07

    I made this twice for my family .Instead of the white wine , I used chicken broth. We all found it very tasty. - 3/27/07

    I just made this tonight. I doubled the recipe, so we would have leftovers, and when I added twice the oregano called for, I had my doubts. But man, oh man, was it good! I made it with Near East Whole Grain Wheat Couscous (Roasted Garlic and Olive Oil flavor) and steamed broccoli. Terrific!! - 6/25/07

    Very Good Hubby loved it. I added vermicelli noodles to make it a whole meal. Turned out wonderfully. Chicken was excellent cooked this way. - 7/19/07

    This was quite good. We ate it with mashed potatoes and asparagus and I am stuffed. I just ran the ingredients and came up with a vastly different calorie count, though... - 2/19/08

    It's better without so many tomatoes, too many tomatoes! Tomatoes over power the meal. Getting to hate tomatoes. Old recipe, not great tasting for family. - 3/31/17

    Loved it! I needed something to do with leftover cherry tomatoes from my Superbowl party, and I saw this recipe. The recipe was so easy to make, and my whole family thought the taste delicious. Can't wait to have it again! - 2/4/09

    Good catch MY_AGREEMENT, because if the measurement is wrong, then other nutrient values will be off, too. Especially the protein. Recipe looks good though. I will be saving this to make sometime this week. - 1/31/09
