    We just finished having this for dinner. It was fantastic! My husband said that it tasted like something he would expect when going out to eat. We will definitely have this again! - 2/24/09

    my family loved this recipe. However I did alter my chicken due to not being able to eat cheese I replace it with a roasted red bell pepper and that too was great. - 11/2/10
