I made this last night. A few slight changes, Chicken Breast, added Shallot, and A LOT more garlic! I didn't feel like dirtying another dish so I didn't remove the cooked chicken. Should have drained the pan of the water released b/c the sauce was a bit runny. Tasted wonderful. Served w/ Brown Rice - 5/4/11

Did the extra garlic make it better? I will try more next time if so!
