    There was too much broth in this recipe. My husband and I like it but will use half the liquid next time. - 5/17/10

    Unfortunatley, I didn't really like the combination of "dijon mustard and soup broth" with "garlic and olive oil." I think it would have tasted better with no mustard and broth. I give it 2 stars. - 10/17/08

    There are ingredient directions missing. There's no indication of how to split the thyme but towards the end, it says "the remainder of thyme and oil!" The overall taste is ok though. My 15 month old loved it though! - 10/13/19

    The nutritional information breakdown is for 8 servings, but at the end of the directions it says "serves 4"? Which is correct? If it is4 servings- would I just double the nutrional values for my counts? - 1/29/12

    This was a big hit with my husband..so much so, he said he'd be okay having it tomorrow. Not bc we had lots of leftovers, but bc he wanted me to make it again lol I thought it was pretty good, but lacking something.. - 7/12/11

    sounds good I will have to try this with my family but I will take the other comments into consideration as to how much broth to use. Thanks for the recipe :) - 7/28/10

    The chicken had nice flavor. I agree about it having too much broth. I think that's what detracted from the flavor. I will cut down on the broth as well. - 7/13/10

    O.K.
    Pretty bland. I'd reduce the liquid and add a bit more flour to thicken the sauce some. Could use a lot more garlic. And a bit of salt. And with all the cooking and plattering, it uses a lot of dishes. I'll not make this again... - 10/18/09

    My family LOVED this!!! It was a little complicated in the process, but I think with a little repetition it will get easier. - 2/3/09
