    Very Good
    it was very good, I like the added veggies! But I did add more water to the pan when I added the liquid. The lemon taste was too strong and not enough sauce. - 3/23/10

    I'm interested in trying this recipe, but it mentions broth in the directions but broth is not included in the list of ingredients. - 2/11/10

    1/2 cup chicken broth. Thanks for asking.
