     This was very good dish. I made it the night before and the flavors had time to blend together. I think next time I may not slice a lemon but add some lemon juice. It was very good! I will make it agian. - 9/22/08

     This was really delicious, great with the brown rice, we made it with chicken breasts & legs, the flavor was very unique, a nice change from the regular chicken dinner. Don't skip the wine in it, that is what gives it the unique flavor. - 1/13/11

     Tasted great! Have made this twice and thought it was great each time. I used dried oregano and parsley though because i could not find any fresh at my local market... Put over some brown rice and was very filling. - 7/12/10
  • CHUBBYNOMORE3
     This is the best chicken recipe I have ever used! Have made it 5 or 6 times and it is excellent. I increased the garlic to 2 cloves. Also, we eat it with no rice or noodles (I think it takes away from the marvelous flavor of the dish. - 2/5/10

     My husband fixed this last night. Very tasty, we both enjoyed it. He used boneless chicken breasts, chopped into about 2 in chunks. Served it over white rice, but we'll try penne pasta next time. - 10/1/09
  • COOLPOOH16
     We decided to double this recipe so the whole family could enjoy - plus leave my dinners for the week. The lemon was a bit powerful when you bit into the rhine so we just made sure not to eat that part ;) Yes, we will definately create this again! Yeah Pampered Chef Mandoline for cutting veggies! - 9/13/09
