I really liked this sauce!i am vegetarian so didn't use chicken, and I did not have any white wine. so I improvised, and it was great, even w/ few different ingredients: i added approx. 1/4c of agave nectar, and used cinnamon, nutmeg,allspice,& clove; then added n/f milk & 1/2 &1/2in 3 to 1 ratio. - 7/1/09
